Re: [misterhouse-users] get_tv_grid

[Tom W. <myc...@my...>]

   Not exactly. Get_tv_grid actually defaults to 
$config_parms{html_dir}/$parms{db}, but my gen_grid.pl defaulted it to 
html_alias( $db ), which uses html_alias_tv. Eric's problem was with 
web/ia5/entertain/menu.shtml *not* using html_alias_tv, but web_href_tv 
instead.

   Point taken about the confusion with the different configuration options 
here; these really need to be straightened out.
