I am building a website that will have two versions - one
online and one offline.  I can create an offline version
that could be downloaded to the user's c: drive. But the
organization wants to use the offline version as a
marketing piece by handing people a CD.  I don't know how
to create a link to the cd-drive.  Obviously
d:\filename.htm works but only if the local computer has a
cd drive named d:.  In many cases the cd uses a different
letter.  So is there a wildcard protocol?  I have tried #,
$, %, &, ? and none seem to work.  I am hoping that I
don't have to edit the html for each file because this
would not be feasible given the budget for this project.

1. Visit http://www.davidbartosik.com/tips/tips_autorun.htm

2. Write your auto run file to open up index.htm

3. Burn your web site files to cd.

4. Burn the auto run file to the cd.

5. Close and eject completed cd.
