FP does not manage any script links
- so if you change any file names or paths you need to edit your scripts
| I'm not sure what you mean by your last line about FP will not manage the
| links. ?
|
| Thanks.
| | >I would change the link as needed:
| >
| > <a href="../pdf/<%=qhcsmenu%>" target="_blank">
| >
| > and would keep all pdf in a single folder.

| > Or

| > You could enter path in the script and leave the link unchanged.

| > Note: in either case FP will not manage the links for you, you have to
