On most (if not all) the www tutorials I've looked at, the implication is that a relative location for an image is on the host PC, (rather than the host directory/folder containing the html file) and absolute is out on the www. I'm aware that other drive letters wont work when the page is moved to a www server. For now, I'm just having a play, on my local machine. I've pulled XAMPP down and installed it on a pen drive, as an alternative to a text editor and local host duo, when I've played around some more. ---------- Looking for a place to host your web site idea?
