Specifically: I want to replace the It worked! home page with our own. I
want to know if there is anything inobvious about putting up other
pages; as I understand it (which isn't saying much; at this point I know
how to spell www and HTML, and the rest is all news to me), I can use
links to relative addresses, so I can 'try out' and even maintain the
web pages locally, have someone else proof, and once the auditors find
out about this, approve the pages. Then, when we are ready, move them to
the appropriate directory on the 3K.
