Preview image path

[Highlander]

I get the sense that Actinic shoves ../ before an image file name when in preview - but not otherwise. This is obviously to save moving all the images into the preview directory.

When using scripts such as Norman's or others that use the image source as a reference this messes them up as the image id is invalid.

Where in Actinic can I find the ../ and KILL it.

Incidentally actinic I think it would be very nice to have the images in their own /images folder.

Thanks

Hacking to remove the ../ is a bad idea as I'm sure that will mess up other things (like style sheets, javascripts, etc) that also need referenced.

You could always use PreviewHTML as the folder for your images as this will remove the ../ without affecting anything else. If you use a songle prefix for all your images e.g."img-" then it'll keep them all grouped together when displaying the folder contents.

If you mean on the server then I'll second that. Having a single directory is a bit simplistic, especially when some sites have thousands of pictures. I'd also like to have a separate directory for the popup pages as, again, there is the possibility of thousands of these too.

Norman,

Thank you very much for this idea.
