How do I create relative links to pages outside my publish root directory?

0

To create a link to pages outside your root directory, you need to use the External Link option in the link dialog. While normally this dialog has you link to pages using absolute paths (i.e. www.mysite.com/folder/page.html) you can also choose to link using a relative path (i.e. …/folder/page.html). To do this all you need to do is select the [none] protocol from the drop-down list, and type in your relative link in the URL field. NOTE: When entering relative links always remember where the page you are linking from is to be located in the output directory structure. If that directory structure changes where your linking page is located on the server, you may need to adjust any relative external links you have created. For an example of how to add a relative link refer to page 18-12 of our User Guide.
