Re: Help screen from WebPage

Jean,

All you have to do is display a URL on a screen.  When using CA emulation
the user can double click the URL (you can even set up the emulation to
display the URL as a button, so a single click will do) and the URL is
passed to the default browser.  On a terminal the URL is just wasted space
:-)
