link

Question

what is absolute and relative link?

Answer 1

Absolute link => complete adress / url

href="http://planete.gaia.free.fr/images/im.animal/homme/neuro/neurone.regenere.JPG"

Relative link => partial path to move from actual place to another

href="im.animal/homme/neuro/neurone.regenere.JPG"

href="../../im.animal/homme/neuro/neurone.regenere.JPG"

If your source code is located at http://planete.gaia.free.fr/images/folder/subfolder/ ( in example )...
