web output relative path problem

Guest

Has anyone found a solution for this problem?

We have a fairly complex drawing, and most of its elements are
hyperlinked. The hyperlinks go first to the parent folder, so they
look like: ..\parent\other-child\filename.html

Problem is that when Visio does web publication, it substitutes \ for
/ and it then substitutes %5C for \

So the browser sees: ..%5Cparent%5Cother-child%5Cfilename.html

Now, per the HTML spec it's correct to encode the \ as %5C. But to
the browser (IE, in case that's important) ..%5C is a nonsense!

If I manually edit the html output and substitute ..\ in place of
...%5C then the browser sees: ..\parent%5Cother-child%5Cfilename.html
and my hypelinks work.

I'd like to avoid the extra manual step of editing my HTML output.
Does anyone know how to accomplish this?


TIA for any help ...
