"menu_data.js" links on CD-ROM

LarryZoom · Post by **LarryZoom** » Fri Feb 09, 2007 11:41 pm

So I moved the site to an autostart CD, and I can't get the links to work. I have to use absolute links because files in different folders use the same navigation.

Original link:
aI("text=XXX;url=http://www.domain.com/XXX.htm;")

Ok, so the forum won't let me include any of my code; even if I surround it with the code tags. How should that line of code read to link to the root of the CD. I have tried url = "/", "~/", and "\". I even tried what was suggested in the FAQ for just this but to no avail.

Hi,

Well, this is not something I do, but there is this post. Not sure if it's what you need either.

try removing the protocol and domain name something like this:

aI("text=XXX;url=XXX.htm;")

HTH,

Then the links are relative which doesnt work for this project. There are files in different folders that use this nav which is why the links have to begin at root.

Exactly what problem are you having posting your code in the forum? Error message(s)?

Hello,

Did you read the information in the post from the link I provided? Did any of this apply to your situation, since that is information about your web on a CDROM and the menu?

I did try it, and the menus wouldn't activate when i did that. This is also an autolaunch CD which means the files have to stay on the root level so I can't put them within a folder which is step one of that solution.
