Pathing Issues

Reply Quote

My directory structure consists of the following:

Root

Dir1

Dir2

Dir3

Images

My editor is located on an aspx page in Dir1.

The page I'm trying to edit is on the root and of course my images are in the Images folder.

The page was originally created in Font Page, if that makes any differance.

When I load the page.htm into the editor, all the image links are broken until I put ../ in front of the path.

After I do that, then the image links are broken on the public view.

Is there a setting to allow the editor to use the pathing relative to the page location and not where it being edited from?

I don't want to use the full url because I have a development network and a live network and don't want the base url hardcoded.

Thanks,

Bill

Bill,

>>When I load the page.htm into the editor, all the image links are broken until I put ../ in front of the path.

Because you use relative path (images/some.gif) and page.htm is under the root.

For example:

<img src="images/som.gif"> This image is only visible when the current page is under your root.

>>I don't want to use the full url because I have a development network and a live network and don't want the base url hardcoded.

Please use absolute paths without the domain name. For example: <img src="/images/som.gif">

To use absolute paths without the domain name, you need to set Editor.RemoveServerNamesFromUrl property to true (by default).

Example:

<CE:Editor id="Editor1" RemoveServerNamesFromUrl="true" runat="server"></CE:Editor>

Sorry, that didn't work.

In the editor, when I put the /images/som.gif the editor still can't find the picture until I put the ../.

Also after putting the / in the path it breaks the image on the website.

Why can't the editor simply edit the file from it's stored location like Front Page or any other html editor would.

It doesn't matter where my Front Page is being used from, the pathing is relative to the page not the editor.

Thanks,

Bill
