I am having a isssue with IE 5.2 for mac. It seems as when I use a relative path ex: (ordering/login.cfm) and I go to view the site from IE none of my images or links work and the path shows as ex: (
The site seems to work fine on PC and Netscape for Mac.

Here is the site address if you would like to view what is happening.
 
I don't know if this is an issue specific to IE 5.2 for the Mac, but in general it's better to be more specific with your relative paths. For example if your directory structure is (guessing from your post):
Code:
Home Directory
  index.cfm (file)
  ordering (directory)
      login.cfm (file)
Then from index.cfm you might try referring to
Code:
./ordering/login.cfm
. The "./" in front clearly states "from the current directory".
 
Well I tryed what you suggested and no luck (./). Although I tryed just a / in front of my links and it seems to be working fine. thanks for your help Genimuse
