Dreamweaver and relative path in template

[basil]

I'm using Dreamweaver 8 to develop a site, and trying to devlop pages from a DW template (.dwt)

My problem is with relative links - when I set it up with a path that looks like

<img src="../images/header.jpg" width="760"

, it turns into

<img src="../../../../2006_weather_%20project/production/20060715/images/header.jpg" width="760"

when I create a page based on the template and then save it.

This happens too with library items - in the .dwt it looks like

<a class="nav" href="../forms.htm">Forms</a><br>

, but changes to

<a class="nav" href="../../../../forms.htm">Forms</a><br>

in the completed page.

I must have done something wrong - can anyone assist please?

BTW, a my directory looks like (see attachment).

Hope you can help, coz I'm getting a little frustrated with not being able to move on.

It has this auto fix thing. Turn it off and ask it not to do it.

Make a site in dreamweave and make the directory where all the required directory and files are, root directory.


This is one of the many pains using Dreamweaver. I am not saying its not good, but its good only if you really know how to use it.

I trust UltraEdit (or any text editor) and do my own coding.
