(im too slow at answers!) :(ok. thanks.just use the same thing, it will go to the same place.

Here is kinda how this works:
Ill make a picture diagram, and reply back it 10-15 minutes from the time of this postOK, here is how it works:

Lets say you are woking in the file called index.html, and you decide to make a image, and put it into the folder called images. now to link to that file all you need to do is <img src=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"images/image1.jpg"> the first one is the folder, and the one after that with the file extension is the file, so if you were going to place it in a folder within the images folder, you would link to it like this:
<img src=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"images/images/image1.jpg">.

Say you have a file that is in the root folder, but your in a different folder, you would like to it like this <img src=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"/image1.jpg">

If you have a folder that is in a different folder off of the root folder, you would link to it like this:
<img src=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"/images/image1.jpg">

When ever you want to add a file, and it is in a different folder, you always need to start in the root folder, and to start in the root folder, you always start the value with a / sign.

Well that is basically how it works, and if you already knew that, then who ever doesn't just learned something new, if not then there you go any questions PM me.
