Viewing File HREF

You can view and copy the location of a file in File Manager. The copied file location can be used to reference the file in text boxes that support HTML. Text boxes that support HTML have a Use HTML check box below them.

Example: In a mail message, you want to insert an image file from a subfolder of File Manager named Images. You would navigate to the location of the file in File Manager, view the location using View File HREF, and copy it from the File HREF pop-up window. You would then paste the location in your message using a tag similar to the following: <img src="RelativeResourceManager/Template/Images/Image_File.gif">

 

Step 1: In File Manager, navigate to the folder that contains the file for which you want to view the location.

Step 2: Locate the file and, next to its title, click the down arrow  icon.

Step 3: Click View File HREF.

The File HREF pop-up window appears with the file location in the HREF textbox.

Step 4: To copy the location:

  • Click the HREF textbox. The file location is selected.
     
  • On your keyboard, press CTRL+C (Windows users) or COMMAND+C (Mac users). The location is copied.

Step 5: To paste the location, place your cursor where you want to paste and, on your keyboard, press CTRL+V (Windows users) or COMMAND+V (Mac users).

Step 6: When you are finished viewing the file location, click OK to close the File HREF pop-up window.
