But that can be a difficult for non-www-admins. Even for webmeisters,
that's a nuisance if there are lots of scripts, imagemaps, etc.

Well, then: how 'bout being able to specify something like
/cgi-bin/myscript/./file-in-this-dir
where `.' gets intrepreted relative to the invocation, rather than
relative to the directory where the scripts live.
I don't really care what the syntax is; I'm just looking for something
which will allow specifying relative paths. Something which doesn't
require reconfiguring the server for each directory I have this need.
Thanks.
