Ahh, I see. But what, then, is <mysite> when the links are relative to the root folder?? I don't quite understand. See original message. I was following the directions in all the Zope documentation that gave examples of links.

I have noticed strange behavior when browsing my web site as I build it.

For example, take this structure:

\-- \Folder1 \Folder2 \Folder3

I make a web page with an index on the left side for ALL PAGES

Folder1 Folder2 Folder3

Which are links of the form <a href="Folder#">Folder#</a>

If I consecutively click through these links, the browser shows my current page as follows

<Click> Folder1, http://Folder1 <Click> Folder2, http://Folder1/Folder2 <Click> Folder3, http://Folder1/Folder2/Folder3

This is NOT what I intend, nor will the second or third work if bookmarked that way. What am I doing wrong???

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

You probably want to use site-relative links. All this really entails is adding '/' to the start of your URLs. Examples: Relative link: 'Folder1' replaces the last part of the current URL Site-relative link: '/Folder1' replaces the entire path of the current URL, while keeping the 'http://host:port/' part. Absolute link: 'http://www.foo.org/Folder1' replaces the entire URL. Cheers, Evan @ 4-am (and soon digicool)
