Oops, thanks for pointing that out.  I'm assuming we actually want

It's executed from typo3/alt_intro.php so as far as I can see, we
should be fine with those relative URLs and they behave the same as
the Install Tool URLs.

Sorry, I mean the fact the we have labels like this:
Please go to Tools>DB Check and update the reference index.

It's one continuous label but we've got the HTML embedded in the
middle, which we don't want in the actual label.  I could use sprintf
to insert the HTML after we grab the label, but I wasn't sure if there
was any other preferred method.

Thanks,
