Question

I have a folder called projects and in it I have a game folder and an engine folder. I have my engine.js file inside the engine folder and I was wondering if I could access it with my game.html file from the other folder like so

 <script type ="text/javascript" src ="\engine/engine.js"/>

Now, obviously the above doesn’t work, but what I need to do is go back out of the game folder to the project folder and then into the engine folder.

File tree: projects folder

• projects
  • engine
    • engine.js
  • game
    • game.js

What is the proper format for src to provide users with a link to engine.js?

Answer 1

Use a double-dot to go back:

src="../engine/engine.js"
