Hi,

I have some include files which are located in a dir;

public_html/folder1

These files are accessed from folder1 and folder2, which is located;

public_html/folder1/folder2

Now, I need to access images which are located in folder1/images from these inlude files.

But, I cannot use the absolute url (eg http://www.mysite.com/folder1/images/imagename.gif) because some pages need to access these includes through https meaning that I get some 'insecure messages'.

If I use the relative url, eg img src="images/imagename.gif" it works fine in the folder1 dir but not in the folder2 dir.

Is there any way i can use relative urls which will work in both folder1 and folder2, or is there another way of including the files which would access the images from the location of the include file and not the location of the file the include is included in. If you understand me!

Thanks for your help

images would have to be included using ../images/imagename.gif or whatever it is.

This is a bit difficult and i have only done it once.

Yes, this would work for the files in folder2 but then the files in folder1 would not show the images correctly!

I would setup a variable for the root, however the actual include files cannot have php code in them as they are also included in an application that cannot read any php!

use relative references from the site root
src="/images/folder1/imagename"
or
src="/images/folder1/folder2/imagename.gif"
