Re: Getting correct hyperlinks in a DWT

Thanks, Stefan. I wasn't familiar with the term so I did a Google, finding the page:

http://ase.tufts.edu/its/webDtParentPaths.htm

If I understand correctly, what you show is called Root Relative pathing. Parent path would be ../

However, neither seems to help.

Also, I now believe the problem has nothing to do with DWT. It is FP itself that always "corrects" the hyperlink paths when a file is moved or copied to a different folder, regardless of how the file was created.

If your site supports parent pathing try using a parent path
<iframe src="/album/index.html" width="1024" height="740"> Please use a
browser that supports iframes </iframe>

| I'd like a DWT than I can use to generate a page which has
|
| <iframe src="album/index.html" width="1024" height="740"> Please use a
| browser that supports iframes </iframe>
|
| in the Body section. Further, I want to put a copy of this page in many
| different folders in my Web and have it appear exactly that way in each
| place, since the targeted index.html file is always in the "album"
| subdirectory where the generated page will be. The problem is, whenever I
| put the generated page into a any folder other than the
| folder where the DWT file is FP will recalculate the link address. IOW, once
| the generated page is where I want it there will be:
|
| <iframe src="../Templates/album/index.html" width="1024" height="740">
| Please use a browser that supports iframes </iframe>
|
| This happens no matter how I get the generated plage to the wanted folder,
| i.e., I get the same result if I created it in its final location or create
| it in the Template folder and move it to the final location.
|
| Is there any way I can force FP to NOT recalculate the link when the
| generated page is moved?
