Links: Relative Links

	A hyperlink is a direct connection from the current location of the cursor to another location.
	Often you will want to provide a hyperlink from one page on your own web site to another page on the same site. A link to another page (i.e., file) in your own folder is called a relative hyperlink. The format is the same as the format for an absolute link: <A HREF="[address]">[Clickable text]</A> However, for the address you need only use the directory path (if the file is in a different folder) and the filename of the file you want to link to.
Example	For example, all of the files in the Web Design Center are in a folder called wdc. This folder is inside my homepage folder which is called ataormina. All of the HTML tutorial files in the Web Design Center are in a folder called html. The html folder is inside the wdc folder. Thus this page, the page you are reading now, is actually a file called links3.htm. This file is in the folder called html which is in the folder called wdc which is in the folder called ataormina. So if I want to remind you how to add a title to your web page, I will refer you to another file in the html folder, HTML: Basics: Add a Title and an Address Footer The code to create the above link looks like this: . . . refer you to another file in the html folder, <A HREF="basics4.htm">HTML: Basics: Add a Title and an Address Footer</A>.
	However, all of the files for my Writing for the Web class are in a different folder. This folder is called writeweb; it is also in the ataormina folder. Inside the writeweb folder are several more folders; one of them, called lectures, holds all the lecture files for my Writing for the Web class.
	So if I want you to read my lecture, The History of the Internet, I have to set the hyperlink on the proper directory path. The code to create the above link is: . . . read my lecture, <A HREF="../../writeweb/lectures/keyconcepts.htm">"The History of the Internet</A>	NOTE: The symbol ../ indicates the level above the current level of the directory tree.
