No special path.  Normal E:\blabla folder.  This works fine in 5.2.

There IS a problem with HTML generation in 6.0.  see below, May be my path 
is TOO long to handle? This is the path I work in:

E:\nabbasi\data\nabbasi_web_Page\my_courses\UCI_COURSES\CREDIT_COURSES\fall_2006\PHYS_100_comp_physics\HWs\HW1\

In the Messages console (I did not know about this before, nice), when I do 
SAVE AS html, I get these errors: I need now to figure why/what these mean.
Mean while if someone had this same problem and have solution, please post.
