Absolute links?

[admin]

In the file: Letters/Cedars2.html, I want to create a link to "Photos/Myhome.jpg". <br />
On the "Cedars2.html" page, (using FrontPage Express) I enter:<br />
<br />
Insert>Hyperlink<br />
(other)<br />
Photos/MyHome.jpg<br />
<br />
It does not work. It seems to be going to the default folder:<br />
<br />
TheCedars/Letters/Photos/MyHome.jpg<br />
<br />
Instead of going to " Photos/MyHome.jpg<br />
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^<br />
Since I will be using these photos in other pages, I want to keep them in a separate folder instead of adding them individually to "Letters" etc.<br />
<br />
Is there a way around this?<br />
<br />
Here is my web folder:<br />
<br />
ftp Homepage (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://home.twcny.rr.com/morsecortland/WebTest.jpg">http://home.twcny.rr.com/morsecortland/WebTest.jpg</a><!-- m -->)<!--content-->Try<br />
./Photos/MyHome.jpg<br />
<br />
:rocker:<!--content-->Nope. I tried both FPEx and Arach HTML editors. <br />
I put in the "./Photos/MyHome.jpg" and save it but the application takes it out.<br />
On to phase 2!<!--content-->D:/webtest/TheCedars/Letters<br />
But in Photos i see an arrow....<br />
Is this realy a directory, or a link?<br />
:rocker:<!--content-->The little arrow part means that is a "shortcut" to the actual folder, so you don't want to be linking through that. Instead you do want to link into the actual directory.<br />
<br />
Try this...<br />
<br />
../../Photos/MyHome.jpg<!--content-->Removed the 'Photos' shortcut but it still doesn't work. The link in question is:<br />
<br />
Photos/MorseHome.jpg<br />
<br />
And it is called from:<br />
<br />
WebTest\TheCedars\Letters\Cedars2.html<br />
<br />
But when I go to Cedars2.html and examine the properties for this link, it is:<br />
<br />
file:///D:/WebTest/TheCedars/Letters/Photos/MorseHome.jpg<br />
<br />
And of course, Photos is not in:<br />
<br />
WebTest/TheCedars/Letters<br />
<br />
It is in:<br />
<br />
WebTest<br />
<br />
Here is the link to my web page so you can get the whole picture:<br />

<br />
This web page is in Webtest (under developement). The rest is my existing page which is working OK,<!--content-->Originally posted by <htmlite> <br />
The little arrow part means that is a "shortcut" to the actual folder, so you don't want to be linking through that. Instead you do want to link into the actual directory.<br />
<br />
Try this...<br />
<br />
../../Photos/MorseHome.jpg <br />
<br />
Ok, try it with just one...<br />
<br />
../Photos/MorseHome.jpg<!--content-->
