Resolving Root Directory

Question

I'm using Visual Studio Web Developer Express on this website and lets say, for example, I have the following directory structure ...

<root>\
<root>\index.htm
<root>\images\
<root>\images\logo.png
<root>\myfolder\
<root>\myfolder\index.htm

In the \index.htm I can load my image into the page with ...

<img src="images\logo.png" />

In the \myfolder\index.htm page, I can load my image with ...

<img src="\images\logo.png" />

This works fine on the server, but in VWD I just get the broken link image. How can I set this in VWD to recognize that \images\logo.png points to the root directory, then the images folder?

Answer 1

On the property pages window for the entire website, I see the virtual directory property and I set it to

/

Everything now shows correctly in VWD.
