Relative paths!!!!!

Reply Quote

I have a problem with relative paths.

Suppose to define a site where a specific URL: http://192.168.1.4/Site/Pages is corresponding to a physical path 'c:\Tex\Site\Pages'.

The structure of the folder Tex is:

Tex

bin

CuteSoft_Client

Site

Pages

img

Now in the folder 'Pages' is stored a page 'index.html' whereas in img folder is stored the file 'foot.img'.

The page 'index.html' is so defined:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//DVB//DTD XHTML DVB-HTML 1.0//EN" "http://www.dvb.org/mhp/dtd/dvbhtml-1-0.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Regione Veneto</title>
</head>
<body>
<p><img src="img/foot.jpg" /></p>
</body>
</html>

I have tried to edit this page using your editor .i.e. calling the method: editor.LoadFile(path) where path is equal to "C:\Tex\Site\Pages\index.html". Well, the page is rendered without the effect of the image 'foot.img' beucase its relative path is translated erroneusly in 'C:\Tex\img\foot.jpg' instead of 'C:\Tex\Site\Pages\img\foot.jpg' (I know this beucase I debug my httphandler on the server).

Of course if I change the relative path in the corresponding absolute path of the image all is ok. Besides if I call the page using I.E. with the URL: http://192.168.1.4/Site/Pages/index.htm, the page is rendered successfully.

Can you tell me something about this problem ?.

Best Regards

polmau,

I assume you have a page under C:\tex\ which loads the content of your html.

Because you are using a relative path, <img src="img/foot.jpg" />, the above path will be translated to C:\Tex\img\foot.jpg.

More informations:

C:\txt

<img src="img/foot.jpg" />, the relative path will be translated to C:\Tex\img\foot.jpg.

C:\txt\Site

<img src="img/foot.jpg" />, the relative path will be translated to C:\Tex\Site\img\foot.jpg.

C:\txt\Site\Pages

<img src="img/foot.jpg" />, the relative path will be translated to C:\Tex\Site\Pages\img\foot.jpg.

Does it help?

I should like you read my problem again!

Your third case:

C:\txt\Site\Pages

<img src="img/foot.jpg" />, the relative path will be translated to C:\Tex\Site\Pages\img\foot.jpg.

coincides just with my situation.

But as I explained to you, if I call the page using editor.LoadFile(path) where path is equal to "C:\Tex\Site\Pages\index.html", the page is rendered without the effect of the image 'foot.img' beucase its relative path is translated erroneusly in 'C:\Tex\img\foot.jpg' instead of 'C:\Tex\Site\Pages\img\foot.jpg'

As you can see, the effect is different from what you told me.

Best regards

Where does you call the page?

Check my examples:

C:\txt

<img src="img/foot.jpg" />, the relative path will be translated to C:\Tex\img\foot.jpg.

C:\txt\Site

<img src="img/foot.jpg" />, the relative path will be translated to C:\Tex\Site\img\foot.jpg.

C:\txt\Site\Pages

<img src="img/foot.jpg" />, the relative path will be translated to C:\Tex\Site\Pages\img\foot.jpg.

I hope to answer to you correctly:

_htmlEditor.LoadHtml("~/Site/Pages/index.html");

Sorry..now I undestand what you say!.

The location is "C:\Tex".

But now reading your preceding answers, must I realize what I want do is not possible?

Pratically I can edit pages only within the same site!!.

Thanks

Best regards

Hi Adam

I have not received your reply about my question.

Nevertheless your question

"Can you tell me the location of the page which contains the following code "_htmlEditor.LoadHtml"?"

is for me obscure beucase it underlines the relative paths are relative rispect to the calling page and not to the called page.

I realize, when I call a page using an explicit path, all the relative paths included in this page must be translated suitely on the basis of the path referred to the called page.

What do you say about this ?

Best regards

polmau,

This is not an editor issue.

C:\txt <<-- you page is here

<img src="img/foot.jpg" />, the relative path will be translated to C:\Tex\img\foot.jpg.

C:\txt\Site

<img src="img/foot.jpg" />, the relative path will be translated to C:\Tex\Site\img\foot.jpg.

C:\txt\Site\Pages

<img src="img/foot.jpg" />, the relative path will be translated to C:\Tex\Site\Pages\img\foot.jpg.
