Tim; Um... okay, I think I know what the problem is.
The header and footer files are in a different directory than the content files. The client Web browser will be looking for the files based on the physical location of the content files on the Web server, not based on the location of the header and footer files. You need to think about the location of the image directory relative to the location of the content pages. What you will need to do is adjust the links to images in the header and footer files to be dynamic based on the location of the content page, i.e. <img src=#request.page_level#images/thisimg.jpg"> You will need to set a variable in each one of your content pages that refers to the location of the images directory relative to the content page, i.e. <cfset request.page_level = "../">. You can create a new file, call it app_local.cfm or something like that, and include it in each of your content pages. Should do the trick, Mike -----Original Message----- From: Tim VanderPloeg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, March 01, 2002 2:36 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Image directory flow I must be missing something very simple but I am new to CF. I have to follow a directory structure hear where I work that goes like this: Root Dept Apps Content Graphics Apps What I am trying to do is to have a header.cfm and footer.cfm that will be located in the Apps directory and the images in the Graphics directory. All of my pages will use the header.cfm and footer.cfm no matter what level the module is at. With the <cfinclude template="/header.cfm"> the images do not carry over to the different levels unless they are in the same level as the header.cfm is. In the img src="../content/graphics/image.jpg" call I have tried it with just the / at the beginning and still no luck. What do I need to do so all of the images that are stored in the graphics folder and used in the header.cfm no matter what level I include the header.cfm will be seen. I only want one header.cfm, menu.cfm and footer.cfm on the site.
