Subject:        CFDirectory and relational urls

Hey all,

I know I am overlooking something simple here. I am using CFDIRECTORY and
would like to use a relational url, but am having no luck.

As you can see, the reason I wish to use relational urls are because I wish
to use it as part of the href.  And secondly the link doesn't work properly
using the d:/inetpub.... And I think that is just bad programming to point
to a file through the drive letter.

Here is my test code, I would like to have url.directory =
/anotherdir/yetanotherdir/

<CFDIRECTORY DIRECTORY="#url.directory#"
    NAME="myDirectory"
    SORT="name ASC, size DESC">

<table>    
<cfoutput query="myDirectory"> 
<tr>
        <td><a
href="#url.directory##Name#">#Name#</td><td>#size#</td><td>#datelastmodified
#</td></A>
</tr>
</cfoutput>

Help if you can!!!
