<div bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#333333">Apparently Drupal does
not allow you to reference absolute URL paths in
scripts, which is causing me a problem. I have a script in my
page.tpl.php that randomly picks images from a directory and displays
them in the header. This works when you're on the top level, but not
below since I'm using a relative path to get to the image directory.
Can anyone tell me the proper way of doing this?<br>
