FLASH: Viewing site locally (javascript issues)

[james]

I'm creating a local copy of our site so sales folks

can run a demo/walkthrough on their laptop (w/o

dial-in)... I'm running into a slight problem though.


We have javascripts that open a new window for certain

sections and I need to duplicate this.  The problem

isn't the script, but the location of the page it's

opening.


For example:  I point to "c:\webpage\new.html"  well

that's great in the code and works, but what if the

sales guy installs the files to "d:\mystuff\" then the

javascript is messed up.


So far, I haven't had to hard code any paths, just

relative links.  But with the new window, I *think* I

*have* to code the full path, right?  Or, is there a

workaround I'm not thinking of?


I would like to make everything relative because

someday this will be on CD-ROM and I won't know what

their drive letter is all the time.


TIA for any tips!
