Riparian Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Hope this goes here. I run php5 apache 2.2 with mysql4 on my local machine I prefer relative addresses. Can someone help with the correct syntax to call... say.. the Home page (index.php) in the root directory with something like <a href="../" (../ takes me back too far) when called internally At the moment I have to stipulate eg. <a href=index.php> etc Cheers Brian Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/226857-help-with-relative-absolute-address/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Fedorov Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Hi, the relative address changes on which folder you are in, "./" means THIS folder, "../" means one folder up So if you are in the same folder of index.php you can just write "./index.php" or simply "index.php" if the file is inside some other folder you should go up to the root folder, e.g. "../../index.php" Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/226857-help-with-relative-absolute-address/#findComment-1170571 Share on other sites More sharing options...
