Hi
How do I refernece links so that they work on both my development and live
servers? On my development machine, my web site exists in a virtual
directory so a relative link such as '/images/image1.gif' that works on my
live server doesn't work (because it points back to the root of my website,
not that of my virtual directory)?
Cheers

It works for me both in server-side and my IIS on pc:
<img src='images/image1.gif'>
remove the first "/" and try again, if you've images folder in one level
upper than your files, it works.
Another thing, perhaps you didn't added the file to your project.
if you use visual studio:
select your "images" folder in solotion explorer, right-click|Add|Exist ing
Item , and then choose your images you want to add to yout project.

Hi Saber
Thanks for the advice but this doesn't work for controls etc. I have a
number of controls that use graphics. These controls can occurr on pages at
any level within my site so the relative path to the images folder from them
is different. I need some way to indicate paths relative to the application
root rather than the web server route.
Cheers

Use "~". ~/images/image1.gif
You will have to use server tags though. Or perhaps the ResolveURL method.

Thanks guys. This seems to work got img tags as well as long as i include
runat=server in them. Is there a similar shortcut that can use within CSS
files?

I need to know how to overlap DIV content within 'relative' associated

Hello
Reading the follwing document:
http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-positioning-970131#In-flow
it seems very clear that position:relative should be relative to the parent
element. So in the following test case element1 and element2 should be
placed side by side inside a centered white container element:

I'm confused about paths.
I have a functionn that uses the mappath method, which I think requires a
virtual path (is that the same as a relative path?).
But this doesn't always work as the path can take the form of the following:
1. /directory/images/xyz.gif (works fine)
2. http://localhost:1234/www.mytestwebsite.com/directory/images/xyz.gif
(doesn't work)
3. http:///www.someremotesite.com/directory/images/abc.gif (doesn't work)

Aside from the deaths of a few extra electrons to spell out the whole root

shouldn't make any difference, and it would make it much easier to slap

forth. And the few extra bytes, which even for a fairly large site would
not amount to as many bytes as are in a fairly small low-res image, should...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
