Re: relative path of hyperlinks

you cannot link to a folder, only to a file within a folder.

|I am copying links from the text box( which works correctly).

| example of link
| Publisher:on text: //host1/service1/welcomefolder/
| Intranet: on text: //host1/service1/welcomefolder/
|
| Publisher: on jpg: //host1/service1/welcomefolder/
| Intranet: on jpg: //./././service1/welcomefolder/
|
| i have also noticed that when I re-open my publisher,
| the jpg turns relative //./././service1/welcomefolder/
|
| Thanks for the help.
