BAD Question - SSI - Getting to the Home Directory

[Chad J]

Ok, I am using a virtual include on all of my pages. I can't remember if there is a way to put links in this included file, with-out hard coding the whole URL.

For example you are at: www.yoursite.com (the left column 'SSI' contains links to www.yoursite.com/folder/news/other.htm & www.yoursite.com/other/news.htm)....

Is there a way to get to the root directory from anywhere in the site? It will be something similar to: ../

I want it so that if I am at www.yoursite.com/folder1/folder2/folder3/folder4/folder5/index.htm then I can still use the same links in the SSI column.

Does this make sense? Please help me out.

Thanks,

Chad

There is 1 way: start every link in the include with /

/dir1/page.shtml

This will make the browser start looking at the root directory, so it should work.
