I’m trying to make a page for use with wordpress and it’s almost working,
The page I want to use is an HTML page with designated space for it within certain DIVs.

I’m encountering the problem of wordpress using the wrong links to kind of everything. I will probably have to change every link to http://www.mydomain.com/sub/folder/image.jpg while there are many links.
the page is positioned in a subfolder, there where wordpress is installed on the server.

But other pages are positioned in the root, and retrieve all other files directly starting from the domain so writing /sub/folder/image.jpg is enough.
Is there a way I could get this to work with html/php files in sub folders as well (so when typing a link like /sub/folder/image.jpg they retrieve http://www.mydomain.com/sub/folder/image.jpg
and not
http://www.mydomain.com/sub/folder/sub/folder/image.jpg

thanks!

    If you are using URLs such as sub/folder/image.jpg with no slash at the beginning (i.e. relative URLs), the browser should add this to the current folder.

    Which means that if the current document is :

    http://www.mydomain.com/sub/folder/my-page.html

    You should end up with this :

    http://www.mydomain.com/sub/folder/sub/folder/image.jpg

    But if you use URLs such as /sub/folder/image.jpg with a slash at the beginning (i.e. absolute URLs), the browser should start from the domain-name.

    Which means that, with the same URL for your HTML document, you’d end up with this :

    http://www.mydomain.com/sub/folder/image.jpg
