Template Vs Server / Images
|
Can't Post

|
Hi Guys
I am tyring to modify the templates in listing manager, Generic templates. My problem is when using dreamweaver I insert my own images into the template and save the image to images folder under the main listman folder. the location looks like this ../../images/header5.jpg This location is ok for dreamweaver as I can see the images in the template, but upload to server I cannot see the images.
If I change the image location to ../web images/header5.jpg I cannot see the image in dreamweaver but can see on server. Where is the best location to save these images so I can see my design taking shape in dreamweaver and on server.
How can I make the images save as ../images/header5.jpg ??
Rather than ../../images/header5.jpg
Thanks
GB

Hi GB39CA,
In this case I'd recommend coding absolute URLs on your template files so that your content can load when viewing it on both your server and through Dreamweaver. This is typically the best way to address this problem.

Hi there,
A relative URL might look like this:
<a href="../images/button.gif">
Whereas an absolute URL would look like this:
<a href="/images/button.gif">
or
<a href="http://www.yoursite.com/images/button.gif">
Try doing a Google search if you'd like more information on these two types of URLs and their use.
