Daniel, thanks for the help!, I really appreciate it.
Believe me, I simplified this to nothing:
1) I have LOGO.html in all directories with only the current directory
name in the html file (/lib = directory of LOGO.html file)
2) the home.html file has about 30 deferent include statements so I
can see from what directory its included the LOGO file from. ( {%
include "LOGO.html" %}, {% include "/LOGO.html" %} {% include "lib/
LOGO.html" %} {% include "/lib/LOGO.html" %} etc....
3) I tried TEMPLATE_DIRS setting 30 ways:
Currently:
SITE_ROOT = os.path.realpath(os.path.dirname(__file__))
TEMPLATE_DIRS = ( os.path.join(SITE_ROOT, ''),
The log file is showing the correct root path with this but I tried
coding this 20 ways, including; 'root', c:\root, /root, \\root, "../",
"lib", /lib", "/", "\\"
I hate waisting time on this as I could be more productive coding, but
I will try a new project with this on Monday, someone also said
something about Python 2.6 being better at relative paths.(I'm on 2.5
with 1.1 of templates)
FYI: I have no problem including .py code from all kinds of relative
paths down & up the tree.
Thanks again.
