I always manage to forget the syntax for traversing folders. So for the recorded, this is how it’s done:
/
means drop back to the root folder then traverse from there. For example<img src="/assets/images/banana.jpg" alt="banana">
the images folder is at the root level./
means start at the current working directory. In this example,<img src="./images/banana.jpg" alt="banana">
the images folder is a current working directory which could be something like/assets
../
means go up one directory from the current working folder. So looking at this example,<img src="../banana.jpg" alt="banana">
the current working directory might be/assets
the next level up would be/assets/images
where thebanana.jpg
file is.
It’s not especially complicated but not getting this right can really mess with your mind when things aren’t working.
