Returns
Either a string that contains the URL of the local root folder of the site where the file is saved or an empty string if the
file is not associated with a site.
dreamweaver.getTempFolderPath()
Availability
Dreamweaver MX.
Description
Gets the full path to a temporary folder where you can store temporary or transient files. This function looks for a
Temp folder inside the Dreamweaver Configuration folder. If the system supports multiple users, it looks in the user’s
Configuration folder. If a Temp folder does not exist, the function creates it. Shared files that are not transient should
be stored in the Configuration/Shared folder.
Arguments
None.
Returns
The full path to the folder, which is expressed as a file:// URL.
Example
The following line of code returns the full path for the specified file. The
dw.getTempFolderPath()
function does not
return a slash (/) at the end of the path, as do other Dreamweaver functions (such as
dreamweaver.getSiteRoot()
):
var myTempfile = dw.getTempFolderPath() + "/myTempFile.txt";
dreamweaver.relativeToAbsoluteURL()
Availability
Dreamweaver 2.
Description
Given a relative URL and a point of reference (either the path to the current document or the site root), this function
converts the relative URL to an absolute file:// URL.
Arguments
docPath, siteRoot, relURL
•
The docPath argument is the path to a document on the user’s computer (for example, the current document),
which is expressed as a file:// URL or an empty string if relURL is a root-relative URL.
•
The siteRoot argument is the path to the site root, which is expressed as a file:// URL or an empty string if relURL
is a document-relative URL.
•
The relURL argument is the URL to convert.
