The problem is you don't quite understand the relationship between Active4D and WebStar.

This and many other things!

If WebStar and 4D are running on different machines, you must make sure in your Active4D pages to use a full URL in all image references and links. A relative reference will not come back through WebStar, but will go directly to 4D, which is not what you want.

Many, many thanks for sorting me out. I'm sorry if it ate up a lot of time.


As an aside, I am curious why you are running WebStar 4.5 -- a Classic app -- on Mac OS X. You would do yourself a great favor by upgrading to WebStar 5, as it runs native no Mac OS X and the Rewrite rules are much more powerful than Welcome.

Indeed. But almost all of my sites are served up via Lasso, and there is no W*V to 4D connector for Lasso. Rather than upgrading, I'm pondering getting another Mac and a new WebSTAR licence so I can do the change over site-by-site.


Thanks again.

David Wright
