<DIV><SPAN class=841014719-11042006><FONT face=Arial size=2>For example, we
currently have \\<A
href="file://\\machine\drive\directory\filename.ext">machine\drive\directory\filename.ext</A> -
I was wondering if MapServer would recognize the system variable and substitute
the appropriate value - <A
href="file://\\%machine_drive1%\directory\filename.ext">\\%machine_drive1%\directory\filename.ext</A></FONT></SPAN></DIV>
