No, I'm afraid not. I have a similar problem with my very little Kasper program (http://folk.uio.no/hallvary/rebol/kasper.r).
It seems to always tell me I'm offline, no matter how online I am.

Try this:
htmlbase: {<BASE href="http://www.xyz/com/">}
There are two ways to mark strings in rebol: "like this" and {like this}.

You would have to download those other web pages as well, and perform a search in them
too. Or did you mean something more specific?

Not sure I understand what you mean. Can you explain or give an example?
