Relative File Name

[Geoff Canyon]

You can do exactly what you describe -- refer to the image as 
"images/image1.gif" There's no setup required.

The drawback is that the default path to start from is the application, 
so during development you would need to have the images folder in the 
same folder as the Revolution application, _not_ the same folder as the 
stack is in (unless the stack is in the same folder as the Revolution 
app, of course).

When you build a standalone, move the images folder into the same 
folder as the standalone.

regards,

Geoff
