Hi,

I still like to know how this exactly works. But there is no urgency. 

Frank already fixed the "root cause" by adding an explicit redirect in
the httpd conf.d.

RedirectMatch permanent "/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb(.*)" "/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb.html$1"

So the script doesn't need to be changed.

Cheers,

Mark
