html and wmv files using 'backward' relative addressing
Hi,
My html code can call and run wmv files if the wmv file is in the same folder or a sub-folder as the html file calling it. But I normally like to keep my code and images in separate folders viz: (..\contents for html, ..\images for jpg files and ..\videos for wmv files). The relevant code extracts of an html file located in ..\contents are PARAM name="FileName" VALUE="../videos/videofle.wmv" EMBED TYPE="application/x-mplayer2" SRC="../videos/videofle.wmv" NAME="MediaPlayer" This doesn't work. When the player is displayed and I right click it to check its properties, the properties are disabled. 'Backward' relative addressing works perfectly for images held in ..\Images such as html code ../images/imagefle.jpg. Why doesn't 'backward' relative addressing work for wmv files?

html and wmv files using 'backward' relative addressing
As noted, that's not supported. Use either full URLs or subdirectories, but directory walking upwards in that fashion is as noted not supported. An ActiveX control that supports ".." in the pathname is potentially in for an interesting time - it's kind of good to avoid that. -- Speaking for myself only.
