Many will argue with me. Let them rant, I say. :-P
Do not include these shared resources in your project. Keep them in
the web server's doc root where you, your app, and (here is the
important part!) the graphics guys can all access them. When they
update the images, there is no need for you to update your project.
They can design new pages without getting the images from your project,
nothing gets out of synch.
Then in your image tags, use relative URLs that start with '/', e.g.
<img src="/images/navigation/navbar.gif">
To make this work you can't use DirectConnect (I think, maybe there is
a way). This is also, IMHO, a good thing as you develop as you deploy.
Anyway, that is my two cents on the subject.

All,
Just recently finished up my first production WO web app. I took the
easy
route and focused only on the logic, didn't mess with any of that
stinking
graphics stuff. ;^) Now that the app has completed testing and is
deployed
the client wants me to work with the graphics design group to pretty
it up.
The layout that the graphics guys have come up with have a lot of
sections
that are juicy for reusable components so I started to look into how to
create one today. I created a new framework and build the reusable
component within the framework. I also included all of the images
that the
component needed within the framework. I then added this new
framework to
my test application and it worked fine except it did not show the
image that
I was looking for, it output the following error within the HTML
output:
<img
src="/cgi-bin/WebObjects/Authors.woa/wr?
wodata=ERROR_NOT_FOUND_framework_*nu
ll*_filename_navbar.gif">
Do I need to capture the resource somehow in order to display it?
Thanks,
Darich
