If the link occurs in a file that is in the same directory as
m_s..._index.html it should work. filepaths and URLs are not really the
same thing and this can lead to much confusion, but if you composed the
current file and m_s_...index.html in the same directory, the relative URL
should work. However, if you saved these files from the site, perhaps your
browser added a BASE element. Check your source to see if it did. Then
since the site seems to be down, the link will not work, because it is
effectively <whatever is in BASE>/m_s_etc.
