Hi guys,

Is there any way to reference an image(or file i.e. stylesheet, js etc.) from a parent/grandparent directory?

Thank youuuuuuu.

../ for the parent directory.
../../ for the grandparent.

You might find it easier to add a <base> tag to you site. For example..

<base href="http://www.ooer.com/" />

..would make all of your URLs relative to "http://www.ooer.com/". An image tag of <img src="images/onion.gif"> would be fetched from "http://www.ooer.com/images/onion.gif". It's a much nicer solution than messing around with parents and grandparents and stuff.
