I want to use the same header file for multiple directories on my site, how can I make the links all work without using the domain in the links?

Is there a way to tell the link to start from the root directory?

Thanks!

    if your page is php then you can assign a variable to your url and use that site wide, but the most simple way is just leave out the url

    <a href="/path/to/your/file.html">link</a>

      Follow ussher´s advice and in case you need to "go back" one dir, you can do that like this:

      <a href="../file.html">link</a>

    Just use:

    <a href="/filename.html</a>
