Whether the machine is a server is NOT the relevant issue. (Feel like my
last post on this thread was entirely ignored...but I guess I will try again.)

The things that are understood by a web server to start with a / are one of
two things: your top level directory OR an alias that is set up in your
configuration file. Based on the info that Barry stated, I would bet it's
the latter.

If you are running an Apache web server, you would add a line to your .conf
file to look something like the following:

Alias /images /www/somedir/images

With a line like that in your conf, you could use /images to reference
anything in the /www/somedir/images directory. (www is your document root
in all of the above).

If this is still unclear I can try again.
