Look at NSURL, it has a couple of methods to work with relative path
references (Yes, you can use NSURL also for local file paths).
When adding a new file, check it's relation to your "current file's
directory" and then use this method to create the url to the new file
relative to that using:
+ (id) URLWithString:(NSString *) URLString relativeToURL:(NSURL *)
baseURL
If your question is how to find out where some file and your "current
file's directory" intersect, you could look at [theURL absoluteString]
for both url's and use this method of NSString to find the first point
where they differ:
- (NSString *) commonPrefixWithString:(NSString *) aString
options:(unsigned) mask
j o a r
Ps. Don't cross post!

For my program, I have the user select a file, and I get the path.
Currently, this is a absolute path, but I want to get the path
relative to the current file's directory. So if I have the user
select, for example, a CSS file to add to an HTML document, the link
placed in the HTML code would reflect the path from the current
document (like index.html).
