Subject: Problem with relative links

I am having a problem getting relative links to work 
with WinHTTrack (version 3.09e).

I am copying a frameset that specifies the content of 
one of the frames as:

"/path/db.nsf/view1/id1%3Aid1?OpenDocument"

This page is copied just fine by WinHTTrack.  However, 
on the page there is a link with a URL in the form:

"../view2/id2%3Aid2?OpenDocument"

This works fine in my Web browser (this relative link 
is interpretted to be the equivalent 
of "/a/b/db.nsf/view2/id2%3Aid2?OpenDocument").  
However, WinHTTrack interprets this relative link as 
equivalent to "/path/db.nsf/view1/view2/id2%3Aid2?OpenDocument", which cases
an error in the copied site.

WinHTTRack will only copy the page if the link is in 
the form "../../view2/id2%3Aid2?OpenDocument", which 
of course does not work for users browsing the "live" 
Web site.

None of the pages specify an explicit classpath value.

Any insight to why I am having this difficulty?  Any 
help would be appreciated since I have spent hours 
trying to resolve this issue.  Thanks!
