Referenced Multimedia in IWP: Full path only?

Featured Replies

All,

normally FP7 has no problems with relative pathes to multimedia content that was included "by reference", though it needs a replace operation to get there.

After some testing with IWP I come to the conclusion that, in addition to the restriction that referenced multimedia files must be in the Web folder of FileMaker, they are only shown on the IWP page if they are referenced by an absolute (full) path.

Can anyone confirm this? Anyone as annoyed as I am with this fact?

Is it the reason why my images (result of an "image:path/name" calculation)

do not shows on IWP ?

When I test IWP on local network it works... (when accesing the ip adress

of the local server) but not if the db is on a real web server)

where must be the db and images folder ? and how must be the full path

if the relative path is "image:imagefolder/image.jpg" ?

Thx !

PS :P db is running on a win XP PC and filemaker pro 7
