I have the following file locations :
file:///Users/MyName/Developer/sitename/scripts (contains all .js files..)
file:///Users/MyName/Developer/sitename/css (contains all .css files..)
file:///Users/MyName/Developer/sitename/images (contains all .jpg/png/etc. files..)
file:///Users/MyName/Developer/sitename/sitename.html
file:///Users/MyName/Developer/sitename/server.js
Inside sitename.html I load all necessary files as follows for example :
<html>
<head>
<script src="scripts/somefile.js"></script>
</head>
...
</html>
So whenever I open up file:///Users/MyName/Developer/sitename/sitename.html everything works fine.
However, whenever I try to load file:///Users/MyName/Developer/sitename/sitename.html via a local Node.js server that I've setup (server file location : file:///Users/MyName/Developer/sitename/server.js) as follows :
var http = require("http");
var fs = require("fs");
fs.readFile('./sitename.html', function (err, html)
{
if (err) throw err;
http.createServer(function (request,response)
{
// serve site
if (request.url === "/")
{
response.writeHeader(200, {"Content-Type": "text/html"});
response.write(html);
}
response.end();
}).listen(8080);
});
sitename.html is found and loaded but all the other files that are supposed to load through it fail to load because they're all given the prefix http://localhost:8080/ (http://localhost:8080/scripts/somefile.jsis not a valid file path for example).
It looks like as soon as the server is created (inside http.createServer(.....);) the context changes and the parent directory now becomes http://localhost:8080/ instead of file:///Users/MyName/Developer/sitename/ which makes sense I guess but is not very helpful when using files that are still stored locally.
How do I work around that? Is the fact that I'm storing server.js (just for the time being) in the same directory making things even more confusing?
Thanks!
