I got very big problem with Dream MX, i can get the connection to work on my pc and IIS. When i try yo make a update recordset, that want work on IIS or my webhotel. When i use a connection in the roth then its ok, but when i try to use the same connection in a folder below roth its not working. I think is´t sad. Can someone tell me whats wrong?
I give it up now, i can not solve this my self.

check the path in the include statement. it should point to your connection.asp file. you may want to change the href to be relative to the site root...

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>
in a folder below roth its not working.
<hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" size=2 id=quote>

Are you mixing absolute paths with document relative paths in the same website ?

Try using only document relative links and includes. I used to have this same problem and it messed up my entire website because I gave one document out of hundreds a absolute path and suddenly DW altered the site setting from relative to absolute leaving me with non-loading images and missing include files. Once I fixed that 1 document and put the preference setting back to document relative my problems were solved. It's really easy to miss but you will never forget it once you experienced it.

Hey!

That sounds like it could be the problem i have. But where do i change so i use document relative????

Hi Magnus,

More info on that subject is in the manual and there's a good technote on the differences here:
www.macromedia.com/support/dreamweaver/ts/documents/path_types.htm Make sure you also read the related technotes since they will further your understanding of link-types.

This setting is either in the site panel or preferences, i forgot where it's located and i'm not near Dreamweaver at the moment.

Note that if you CHANGE it, be it using the settings option or when creating a link and manually select document relative or root relative then I advise you to run the site wide link checker and make sure that ALL links are using the same relativity type, either document relative, relative to site root OR absolute. Absolute should only be used for EXTERNAL links to other websites and for 99% of Dreamweaver users the document relative option works best.

Hope that fixes your problem.
