relative-path

If I use absolute paths, I can't move the whole directory to a new location. If I use relative paths, I can't move individual files to new locations. What's the solution here? Do you set up a config file that holds the root path and go from there? Or do you have a rule like: Never move files around? I've seen in some projects that people use dirname( FILE ). What is the point of that, I mean, why not simply leave it out since the dirname is relative anyway (depending on where the file sits)? you should use a config file that will be included in each file first line, for example your app look

MVC's bundling is returning the wrong URL in CSS images when using CssRewriteUrlTransform: I have an intranet application whose URL is, for example: http://usid01-srv002/MyApplication . It's in IIS's "Default Web Site". Which has the following in BundleConfig.cs : bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("~/bundles/jcss") .Include("~/Scripts/JQueryUI/css/*.css", new CssRewriteUrlTransform()) ); The bundling system is generating the wrong URL for any images referenced in those CSS files, yielding 404's even JQueryUI's very well tested CSS files (from FireBug): e.g. it's generating http://usid01/path/foo.png

So my 2009 new years resolution is to learn Java. I recently acquired "Java for Dummies" and have been following along with the demo code in the book by re-writing it using Eclipse. Anyway, every example in the book that uses a relative path does not seem to read the .txt file it's supposed to read from. Here is the sample code: import java.util.Scanner; import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JLabel; import java.awt.GridLayout; class TeamFrame extends JFrame { public TeamFrame() throws IOException { PlayerPlus player; Scanner myScanner =

I noticed some similar questions about this problem when I typed the title, but they seem not be in PHP. So what's the solution to it with a PHP function? To be specified. $a="/home/apache/a/a.php"; $b="/home/root/b/b.php"; $relpath = getRelativePath($a,$b); //needed function,should return '../../root/b/b.php' Any good ideas? Thanks. Try this one: function getRelativePath($from, $to) { // some compatibility fixes for Windows paths $from = is_dir($from) ? rtrim($from, '\/') . '/' : $from; $to = is_dir($to) ? rtrim($to, '\/') . '/' : $to; $from = str_replace('\\', '/', $from); $to = str_replace(

I have a production and development server. The problem is the directory structure. Development: http://dev.com/subdir/images/image.jpg http://dev.com/subdir/resources/css/style.css Production: http://live.com/images/image.jpg http://live.com/resources/css/style.css How can I have a style.css in css folder that uses on both servers the same path for the background: url property? Is there a trick I can use with relative paths? Kobi The url is relative to the location of the CSS file , so this should work for you: url('../../images/image.jpg') The relative url goes two folders back, and then to
