Hi

I was trying Spider Writer 5.1 and discovered one problem with relative paths.

If my document path is C:\Mysite.Com\htdocs
and my .html files reference ../images/image.jpg then the image should be loaded from C:\Mysite.Com\htdocs\images but instead it looks for C:\Mysite.Com\images

It should be relative to the document path not to the file system.

Thanks Dave...

Dave,

This is correct behavior. The ".." means to go up a level so in your example C:\Mysite.com\images would be correct. To reference an image the way you want, you should specify it as "images/image.jpg". Hope this helps!
