Hehe. Basically, you say <BASE REF="http://www.foo.com"> in the header
of your HTML. Any relative links from an absolute root (img
src=/images/my.jpg) will be specifically retreived from the BASE REF
server; it's a handy way to deal with embedded frames being pulled from
different servers, to ensure the browser asks the right server for the
right content.

So, since I can't inject a BASE REF into the HTML stream proper, I was
hoping to do a little header magic to achieve the same goal.

Oiy, tell it like it is, brother! It's even doubly hard to debug,
because Netscape barfs on a missing CSS, whereas IE just ignores the
problem. Ugh, plooey.
