    Which are better relative or absolute paths for speed, ease of change etc.

    I personaly think absolute paths are better because the you can easily move the file around without worrying about broken links.

    I do prefer absolute links too. I'm doing all my sites with absolute links.

    I really like absolute links but I was wondering if they are less secure because of people uploading files or something? :confused:

    Maybe when you use absolute link, that help you in "Search Engine Optimization", so that google will be archive your link as full path.
