The format you have been using is using absolute links.
It is a hard coded path to the file using an exact description.
Use relative links instead. (Leave out the " g|/ ".)
and make sure the file you are "looking for" is in the same
directory as the WEB page. (Or make the proper "relative
type" changes in your page coding.)
Since the problem is "not" the auto-run part, standard WEB
page "coding" rules should be able to be followed.
