acatalog being added to hard coded link after refresh?

[davidandrew]

on PrimaryBrochure I have hard coded a link:

<a href="index.html">home</a>

when I refresh the site the link has acatalog added to it:

<a href="acatalog/index.html">home</a>

How is this happening? Am I missing something?

Confused but not dazed

Yes - you need a /
<a href="/index.html">Home</a>

Thanks!! For that I think you should be nominated for Actinic Community Contributor of the Year 2005

I feel very dim - mind you looking for something so small can be hard to find.

Where did you read about this? Was it in the pdf? I'm quite adept at finding info on this forum and PDF but this passed me by.

Not in Actinic - the ability to read html comes from writing a few websites

I spoke too soon. I did what you suggested and this happened:

<a href="acatalog//index.html">home</a>

Ideas?

[davidandrew]

I found a solution:

<a href="../index.html">home</a>

The generated code is:

<a href="acatalog/../index.html">home</a>

And in the status bar the link is:

http://localhost/index.html

I'm going to run with the ball whilst no ones looking

There's enough screwy code in here to sink a battle ship as its stands regarding it getting to validate as xhtml strict any how.

Use fully qualified URL's if you don't want Actinic to tinker with them. E.g.
http://www.mysite.com/index.html
