Re: Pass a variable that contains a Link on a real link

Something like this?

http://yourswebsite.com/?myvar=myvalue

In many cases, it will take you to the website without error. If you needed to process that variable's value on the server side, you'd need to have a php / asp / aspx file to do that.

Re: relative path?

Regarding parsing to get file name/ file path, you could also use NB commands:

ExtractFilePath
ExtractFileName

Re: anyway to check if computer is connected to the network?

There are different processes that can be used for a local network than for an Internet based server. On a local network (LAN using windows networking) you should be able to determine if a file simply exists via a path: [syntax=neobook] FileExists "[path2file]" "[ExistsFile]"[/sy...
