Hi Marvin,

Your email was very hard for me to understand. What I think you are saying
is off your main page you have a link like:

<a href="MarvinsWebsite/WebPages/index.html"> Disability Links </a>

And in MarvinsWebsite/WebPages/index.html you have a link like:

<a href="../../Index.html" title="Marvins Web Portal Page" 
target="content" accesskey="W">Return To Marvins Web Portal Page</a>

(I hope the missing space before the title attribute in your email was a
typo).

When you click on the first link, your context changes. Your current
directory is now: /MarvinsWebsite/WebPages. To get back to the root
directory you can use either absolute path:

<a href="/Index.html"> Return To Marvins Web Portal Page</a>

Or relative path:

<a href="../../Index.html"> Return To Marvins Web Portal Page</a>



Maybe you know all this already and are cursing me because I didn't
understand your question ;-). Another HTML tag that can change the current
working directory is <base href="/abc/xyz" />. In that example no matter
what the current directory should be, it will now be: /abc/xyz.


Hope that answered your question. If not please give a few more details.

Regards,
Kepler Gelotte

Subject: [WSG] Html Question Please Help

Hi.
developing a disability links information site.
got my main country page, say Australia.
got my disability pages in a folder called MarvinsWebsite, and now the main 
pages for the main page, are just under the root directory.
i created a folder called MarvinsWebfiles, and put two other folders called 
Images and WebPages.
now there is a link to link back to the main page.
when i move the main files from the root to the two folder, when i try to 
link back to the main page, says it cannot find it, but when i put them back

to the root folder, it works.
now how do i fix this, and the code i have is:


<p> <a href="../../Index.html"title="Marvins Web Portal Page" 
target="content" accesskey="W">Return To Marvins Web Portal Page</a> </p>
as a sample.
cannot upload my site, as my college will not allow ftp uploading.
and cannot install java and the java acess bridge to use the bravehost 
upload file utility.
now, how do i fix this problem?
let me know asap.
cheers Marvin.
