Hello,

Using Expression and subfolders, i use the syntatx below, for example a css file.

<link href="css/name.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

If i display the page locally and on line that works correctly.

But if i use <link href="/css/name.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> the page is correct on-line but not locally (the / before css must be suppressed to be able to use my css or js file.

Is it a setup problem inside Expression Web ?

Thanks in advance,
Eric

 Unfortunately Expression Web does not understand root relative urls so the latter will not work. In Expression Web all links have to document relative. If you are using a DWT then your stylesheet links will automatically be updated to document relative so in a subfolder the path would be "../css/name.css".

If you are  using master pages you use "<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="./site.css" />" Though personally I prefer to put my site css in the root instead of in a subfolder since I've been using CSS long enough to remember browsers that had bug with file paths in CSS if the file was in other than the root and others that would not use a css file that was outside of the root so it probably is just habit.

On a side note, what do you think of the new forum version?

Thanks for your answer and i don't know if Expression Web 2 manage the relative urls...

About the forum, using Firefox 3 RC1, my preceding message appears with a smaller font.
I like this forum, but it is a commercial edition

 V2 does not support root relative links.   I keep requesting them.

BTW, there is a free non-commercial version of this forum available from Talligent as well as a smaller CMS-blog named Grafitti. I skipped one release between our original forum and this version. I'm trying to decide whether or not to let registered members see their personal home page instead of the default one each time the visit. There you can follow threads, blogs, or whatever.
