[Zope] Re. Question on Folder Structure strategy

[Andrew Kenneth Milton]

+----[ Jerry Spicklemire ]---------------------------------------------
| Just to second Evan's motion, "site relative" links will make it much
| easier to move the Zope pieces you're building to another Zope instance, if
| and when the time comes. It's pretty painless to simply "Export" a
| subfolder, and then "Import" into another Zope, knowing that everything
| will still work, even though the DNS address, and name (alias), of the host
| has changed.

Why not set a top level property that has the http://hostname/basefolder
location in it.

All your URLS would become 

<a href="<dtml-var BASELOCATION>/relativefolder">Blah</a> 

Move locations, change the property -- everything works.

If you don't set it everything becomes relative to the root.
