    My local project folder is:
    http://localhost/site/
    -or-
    C:\xampp\htdocs\site

    The links in my site are with a "/":
    <a href="/about.php">About Us</a>

    These links work great on my server, but locally I am trying to change a few things around. The problem with the link above is that apache is rendering the link as:

    Instead of:
    What can I do to tell Apache in my "site" folder to look within that directory?
    1) I've tried to modify my httpd.conf file to point the server directory at "http://localhost/site/", but its not working. Ive tried restarting the server with no luck. Links still are pointing to "http://localhost/about.php" instead of "http://localhost/site/about.php"

    2) I've also tried using <base> tag to force the "http://localhost/site/" prefix on the links with no luck...

    What should I do?

    Because I have multiple directories that use this same navigation include file. For example:

    nav.php
    If I have an index file in the main directory, this above navigation will work, or your suggestion will work.

    But what if I have a directory that I want to include the same nav.php file like "website.com/press/press1.php"? If i use your suggestion, the navigation link will point to "website.com/press/about.php" instead of referencing the main directory "website.com/about.php".

    Follow?
