FP Built in Drop Down Menu

[Guest]

I have checked all options and parameters. I am trying to set up a basic
drop down menu that has links to other pages on my site. This usually works
just fine, since most of my sites have the actual webpages in the root
directory.

However the pages I am putting the drop down menus in are inside folders, so
that when I add the links to then menu it tries to send me somewhere in the
same folder.

For example. www.test.com/test/

I am in the test folder on the default page. I want my links to go to
www.test.com/link/default.htm.

When I add the value of the mentioned link, it sends me to this
www.test.com/test/www.test.com/link/default.htm. Anyway around this, or do I
forget using the drop down component for this job.

Thanks.

Use:

.../link/default.htm (1 level below root)
.../link/category/default.htm (2 levels below root)

Using links relative to the root of the site would work in any folder, no?

May have problems with disk-based webs when the web is not at the root of the HD.

Yeah - I worried about that.
