Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

iWeb (3.0.4) codes the widget file path with .// (double forward slashes) and my webhost doesn't like it!

I spent a many long hours trying to get the widgets to display on my iWeb site pages.


The problem finally turned out to be that the widget file path is coded as .//<directory>/<widget_filename> and the webhost refused to access this path and kept showing 404 errors in the widget boxes.

I had to manually remove the extra forward slash from all the paths to get it to work.


however, everytime i publish the site, the forward slashes get added.

It is utterly annoying, is there a way to fix this?


cheers

Well, I've the the problem resolved:


After put the var $WIDGET_ID_htmlMarkupURL = "$WIDGET_SITE_PATH$x-html-markup"; on the file , I've returned to the original var $WIDGET_ID_htmlMarkupURL = "$WIDGET_SITE_PATH/$x-html-markup"; (with / before $x ) and the site doesnt make .// . For me it works 🙂


Thanks for your help, by the way 🙂
