How do I use one folder for all my site in DreamweaveR?

GadgetAlertPLUS · 09-06-2007, 12:09 AM

Hey everyone. I'm new to the forum and in need of some help.

I've created a website using dreamweaver. I know that dreamweaver sees each subdomain etc as a unique site.

my question is: is there a way for me to load all my default pictures etc from the same folder?

Because right now, every time you go to a subdomain of my site, all the default logos and writing that is in every page has to be loaded. THIS makes going to each page painful and time consuming.

Any ideas of what I can do in dreamweaver to direct it all to the same folder?
NOTE: when I put the root folder for the subdomain to be say the same as the main domain....the files never load. etc

THANKS !!

Web servers too treat each subdoman as a separate site. If you want to use the same graphics across several domains/subdomains do not use the relative paths to the image, use the full url.
