Hi,

now I need a little more help on this...hope there's a solution.

the Path to the object I need to link to is actually categorized
according to the label.

so instead of

ex:href-subcontent="../scripts/{{value}}"

I need to be able to link to content that is in different folders,

scripts/<some-name>/{{value}},

where <some-name> changes according to the label on that item.


I have, with my limited understanding of expressions in Exhibit, tried
various things like:
scripts/{{label}}/{{value}}, scripts/{{.label}}/{{value}} and other
variations - all in vain.

Can you help me?

thanks
-k
