How can i open a folder on a cd using html any help wold be appreciated
HI guys,
i want to make a cd using html to send pictures of my family and my newborn to other family members(not all of my family have internet connections). now i am not to be to bad at making web pages. i want to make a contents page that will contain links that when you click them it will open a specific folder on the cd.
i'm not sure if you can use html to do this.
do folders have file extensions so if i created a link it would go straight to the folders or is it more comlicated than that.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
All you need to do is create the correct directory structure. Put the contents page and all the individual picture pages on the root of the CD and put all the images in a folder called images. Now when you create you pages just link directly to the images folder. So the link to an image will be like /images/photo1.jpg that way it doesn't matter where the files are, whether on CD or internet as long as you keep the directory structure the same it wil always work. Feel free to post back and let me know if this helps

Hi, OK would it not be better to have a piece of software which automatically catalogues all the photos from a directory into an index for you? You don't need to do it all by hand coding....
