It's not valid for XHTML.</p> <p>So are you saying the markup language level independent "relative to root" uri method won't work for you?</p> Wed, 29 Jan 2003 01:42:43 +0000 Suzanne comment 1124429 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/html-css-and-javascript/site-structure-directory-structure#comment-1124428 <p>hmm... I just went on an IRC chat and asked basically the same question, and was referred to:<br /> <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/links.html#edef-BASE" class="bb-url">http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/links.html#edef-BASE</a></p> <p>Seems like the ideal solution. It is just foreign code to me, for now. Has anyone used this bit of code? I have never seen it used until today.</p> Wed, 29 Jan 2003 00:42:05 +0000 KandieMan101 comment 1124428 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/html-css-and-javascript/site-structure-directory-structure#comment-1124427 <p>Or alternatively use /graphics as the directory for images in your code...</p> <p>src="/graphics/whatever.gif"</p> <p>Even if the html file is /services/design, the forward slash tells the server to start at the root (domain name) and then go to the graphics directory. It's called "relative to root" instead of "relative (to file)".</p> Wed, 29 Jan 2003 00:32:45 +0000 Suzanne comment 1124427 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/html-css-and-javascript/site-structure-directory-structure#comment-1124419 <p>Sorry, but I've never heard of the term "symlinks" ... ?</p> Tue, 28 Jan 2003 22:38:37 +0000 KandieMan101 comment 1124419 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
