TSGL: Autorun.inf syntax

[William Pike]

Just noticed one other thing. Your document that is to be opened at autorun
should be in the root of the CD, this is probably why the folder is
opening..if it's possible to put your html doc into the root you should be
able to use the "start" command to display your html doc

could it be the typo?

you may need to run a program and get it to open your file like this.....

[Autorun]
open=viewer.exe firstfile.jpg
