Link paths change in image map

    Hi,

    I’m in the process of incorporating my site into wordpress and I’ve come across a problem and can’t figure out how to fix it. I’m using an image map for the main navigation, and everytime I create a new page/subpage, the link paths change.

    For example, if you go to the main page, preciousillusion.com/wp, you will see that all the links paths are correct (ie. Art > preciousillusion.com/wp/art etc.). But if you go to a subpage like this one: http://preciousillusion.com/wp/poetry/french/souvenirs/ all the links change (ie. Art becomes >preciousillusion.com/wp/poetry/french/souvenirs/art). Any idea on how I can fix that? I’m thinking it has something to do with permalinks…

    Thanks!

    If I’m reading your question correctly, what you’ll need to do is make absolute links (I guess you could call them that) in your image map. For example, your image map probably has the following types of links in it, something like < a href=”/art” >See My Art< /a >. Well the problem with that is that those are relative paths, which is causing every page that has that image map to link to a subdirectory called /art. You’ll need to make the links more definite, for example < a href=”http://preciousillusion.com/wp/art&#8221; >See My Art< /a> . If you do that, I think it should fix it.
