Hmmm ...

What was the exact entry in the "message URL readme.html" in the Syntax
box?

Did you use/try a relative path (i.e., "message URL ./readme4.5.html")
to make sure that it looked in the current directory rather than the
default directory of the browser? If you did do that, then I am not sure
why it did not work.
