That's working almost properly... I don't know how versions of cf-unix work with
regard to templates stored in different root directories, i.e. /home/blah/blah vs.
/spaw-cf/blah/blah ... but what the tag does is attempt to get a relative path from
the current template directory to the target template (or directory)... so... say for
instance, I had these 2 templates:
c:/inetpub/wwwroot/mysite/mytemplate.cfm
c:/inetpub/wwwroot/temp.cfm
If i put #getRelative('c:/inetpub/wwwroot/temp.cfm')# in mytemplate.cfm the resulting
value would be "../temp.cfm". But if it's not on the same drive (or in the case of
unix the same root directory) it's gonna try and go all the way back to the root, for
instance, #getRelative('d:/temp.cfm')# is gonna return ../../../d:/temp.cfm ... on
Windows this doesn't work -- there's no way to create and use a relative path to a
file on another drive (that I know of) ... Not sure how Unix handles it.
What I don't know off the top of my head is why it's creating 13 instances of ../
instead of 9 instances of ../ which is the number of directories in the
getcurrenttemplatepath() string... Probably it's adding an extra array entry for the
leading slash (if not the trailing slash), so if unix allows a relative path to a
different root directory, then fixing that will make it work. Let me know if you're
able to get it to work (and how) and I'll update the function for the bug fix. :)
hth and thanks,
Isaac
