[PHP-DB] RE: trash last message ,this ones right I think
Hello again, DOCUMENT_ROOT is.. /htdocs/www I have a php file ( showdatabases.php) in my subdomain area /htdocs/util/ it loads up just fine: and if you click it, you will see my database structure if you like..:) http://util.consumergrapevine.org/showdatabases.php I have images stored in /hdocs/www/img/ right now (of course i could move them, and fix all references to them) but I like them there because I can refer to images in pages in /www/ with background=img/bgpic.jpg...of course this works just fine becuz /img/ is just down from /www/. but now I have pages in subdomains as menitoned above like: /htdocs/util/showdatabases.php and of course I want to refer to images from those subdomain pages too,,and of course I don't want to have another dir with the same pics in them..something like... /htdocs/util/img/ becuz I already have the pics in /htdocs/www/img/ and if I make another sub domain called /htdocs/stuff , I don't want to have to copy the pics AGAIN into /htdocs/stuff/img right? So,,, (yes I may be getting to the end now..) how or where should I put my pics so the /www/ and /util/ and /stuff/ guys can use them as background pics? what would the body tag look like? body background=../www/img/background.jpg doesn;t work what will? body background=What?? thanks again, Ken -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The problem is that they are completely different websites, from the web browser point of view - even though they are so close to each other on the server... You should have mentioned this was a sub domain site :-) If you REALLY don't want to copy the image from the www folder to the util folder, then you have to use: body background=http://www.consumergrapevine.org/img/background.jpg; So that the browser can reach the image file.

Thanks Tom and sorry I didn't mention it properly at first,, I was trying to analyse the problem. is it becuz the first part of the referenece being the ../ in body background=../www/img/background.jpg the ../ wants to take the browser into illegal territory above the root? because we are starting from /htdocs/util so the ../ would try to go back to /htdocs which is above the root (/htdocs/www) illegal territory. just tryin to understand it thanks , Ken - Original Message - From: Tom Peck [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 10, 2001 5:50 PM Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] RE: trash last message ,this ones right I think The problem is that they are completely different websites, from the web browser point of view - even though they are so close to each other on the server...

Re: [PHP-DB] RE: trash last message ,this ones right I think
Yes that is correct. Your main site root is: /htdocs/www/ And your sub site (util) root is /htdocs/util/ These are two different sites from the browser's point of view. Neither site will have access to anything below the root folder (from the browser).

[PHP-DB] Re: trash last message ,this ones right I think
Perhaps you could consider using the webserver config (in Apache it would be the httpd.conf file) to do the dirty work. Create and alias (in the /util/ domain) for img that points to the /hdocs/www/img/ location - voila!

Re: [PHP-DB] RE: trash last message ,this ones right I think
Ken If the util site is going to be part of the main site, why don't you put it in the www folder? ie. /htdocs/www/util/ the idea for different site roots is so that you can keep different sites separate. If you had the root as /htdocs/ for all, then the website address would be: http://www.yourdomain.com/www/index.php or wat eva.. not very nice..
