To all:

Here's where I show my ignorance, but I can't seem to crack this nut 
-- so here goes.

The following is the function that's giving me problems.

HsExpander.prototype.writeCredits = function ()
{
var credits = hs.createElement
('a',
{
href: this.a,
className: 'highslide-credits',
innerHTML: hs.creditsText,
title: hs.creditsTitle
}
);
this.createOverlay(credits, 'top left');
};

When the "credits" are shown "this.a" will produce:

http://www.mydomain.com/firstdir/secondir/myfile.txt

However, no matter what I've tried, including all your suggestions 
and more, I can't reduce this to "myfile.txt".

There's something different going on here that I don't understand -- 
any explanation or solution?

Thanks for your time and review.

Cheers,

tedd
