Thank you for the help.

I have no problem setting up an images directory as you've suggested.

Coda (through dragging and dropping) actually sets up the image links like this:

src="images/logo.jpg"

assuming we change to the convention you've suggested (which we will). However, our problem arises when we dynamically create a new page using a Perl CGI. The Perl script is called from the cgi-bin directory inside the site's root directory. The script (using the TT2 wrapper which has image links like src="images/logo.jpg") creates HTML that actually tries to have the browser render image files from src="cgi-bin/images/logo.jpg".

I just hard coded all of the image links with absolute URLs. It works fine in both Coda and TT2. Maybe this is the easiest way to deal with this issue? I'm just surprised with all the power TT2 offers through various config options that this can't be done without using absolute URLs. Of course, being totally new to TT2, I may be missing an obvious sol'n.

Still interested in a more elegant sol'n if you have one ;-)

Thanks!
