    Default Dreamweaver

    does anyone know any good forums for dreamweaver? like the flashkit.com ones?

    i have a problem with templates, i can make one fine but i find that when i try to make a page from the template it changes my links from e.g.
    Code:
    ../images/side%20navigation/faq%27s_2.gif
    to
    Code:
    file:///D|/Documents and Settings/Heather/My Documents/Unnamed Site 2/images/side%20navigation/faq%27s_2.gif
    anyway to stop this

    Do you have a test server set up, or are you running the website directly off the disc? Dreamweaver tends to put absolute paths in there if you're not careful, and if you aren't using a test server those paths will point to your hard drive, not wherever they're supposed to.

    Either try setting up a test server, or use absolute paths instead, like:
    Code:
    /images/whatever.png

    i don't like useing absolute links cause i like to be able to move the site about the server (different server) without breaking it.

    i noticed that DW likes changing your links to absolute links ... i hate that, i have not setup a test server, and i have never heard of a test server, i'll look up DW help to see how its done. i was hopeing that there would be a tick box in somewhere were i could stop DW changing the links to absolute links ... not as easy as that i guess... thanks for the help.

    btw

    as i undersand /images/whatever.png is not a absolute link,
    http://crap.com/images/whatever.png is...


    edit: i'm confused.. how do u setup a test server? i'm useing webDAV and useing DW to upload to it
