Yes, I had used a similar complete form for the original.
I had my doubts, though, about "href", but could not find
an alternative in the sparse CGI-documentation around.
No doubts, anymore ..

I will try this on my second computer (where I can test
CGI locally). I also will redirect the output to a file,
in order to look at the actual bytes; perhaps the "/",
a special character in C/C++, get lost, somehow,
in the output-proces (as the reference is part of the
static text-part of the page).

I have checked the clock, but it is (about) the correct
local time and date, and the timezone is correct.
However, there seem to be more problems with this issue,
as it is mentioned by users on other newsgroups too.
