no, as usual you're spot on Lee - but i did have to test it, even though i knew it wouldn't work!
 
I used a really simple two circuit app, then moved the child circuit above the application root and created a virtual directory with the same name mapped to the child circuit folder...although on a Win2k server.
 
*HOWEVER for info*
Win2k server does have an equivalent to symbolic links in the guise of "Distributed File System" which can be run in standalone mode without the need for an active directory. It's pretty neat what you can do, redirecting folders on one server to another folder on the same or different server - i haven't tried it but i believe that would work.

Subject: Re: Nesting circuits - does the physical path have to be a subfolder of the home

I couldn't say for certain, John, not being a frequent IIS user, but I don't think that any web-server mapping would be relevant.  If it were the operating system that had the mapping that might be a different matter.  Symbolic links under Unix should work, for example.

Anybody else?

See ya,

another question on this:

am I right in thinking that the use of virtual folders (e.g. in IIS) to map a folder which is not a physical subfolder of a website to e.g. mysite.com/child would similarly not allow for proper nesting?

Yes, John.  The logical nesting is completely tie to the physical
nesting, although this will certainly be a hot topic for the
Standards-Committee-to-be.

I'm a newbie to Fusebox3 and am currently building my first app.

My question is, for settings to be inherited properly from a
"home" circuit, do child circuits have to physically be located in a
subfolder of the home circuit?

For example,  I understand that the following works fine:

                fusebox.Circuits.home = "home"
                fusebox.Circuits.child = "home.child"

But would either of the following allow settings to be
inherited?

                fusebox.Circuits.home = "home"
                fusebox.Circuits.child = "child"

or
                fusebox.Circuits.home = "home"
                fusebox.Circuits.child = "../child"

Apologies if this has been asked before, I have scoured the
archives but couldn't find a definitive ------=_NextPart_000_01C4_01C1E7EC.8E00CDC0-- ${list_promo}
