referencing

I use relative referencing but it does not seem to work in Netscape 4

[harrya]

I am using relative referencing such as:

action='..\..\manpics2\ABHCGDFE\a.php'

but unfortunately in netscape 4 instead of backing up two folders it simply appends everything to th URL which amazingly works until the next page where the '..\..\etc is not there and it reverts back to the original folder.

I hope i explained this OK, all help greatfully recieved.

PS do not let the names fool you this is not an adult site development.

Hi Harrya

I think you need to use / instead of \.

joshie's right. \ is for local file paths while / is for URLs. I've got no idea why it was ever decided that they need to be different, I just know that they are.

Everything is OK now. Much appreciate your advice.
