Relative vs. Absolute paths for links & Images

Estimated reading: 1 minute 80 views
  • Relative paths change depending upon the page the link is on
  • Links within the same directory need no path information. “filename.jpg”
  • Subdirectories are listed without preceding slashes. “img/filename.jpg”
    Absolute paths refer to a specific location of a file, including the domain
  • Typically used when pointing to a link that is not within your own domain.
