With frequent checks against the Shane Piper videos I've got a good deal
further, but come up against the next obstacle.

I don't want to use absolute addressing, in order to keep the database
portable, but I seem to have got the relative addressing wrong.  The
attached image shows the structure as it stands at the moment.  The URL
I'm giving is in the format ..\Images\someImage.jpg - btw, backslash or
forward slash?  I'm guessing I need to change them all to forward slash.

Q1 - have I put the Image directory in the best place?

Q2 - can you give me an example reference, please.

I feel to be in the "so near yet so far" stage.
