"Links to resources within this portal should be absolute."

While localizing JBoss Portal to Chinese, I'm curious on the CMS_LINK_TO_RESOURCES. "Links to resources within this portal should be absolute. For example: A link to an image located in default/images/back.gif should be typed in exactly as shown here. Do not prefix a slash (/) to the path of the resource. You can verify the link is correct by clicking on the preview button in the editor".

I think it's a relative link, right?

The wording is indeed confusing as it is not a strict absolute link but it cannot be a relative link either. In essence, the link must be relative to the root of the deployment, not to the location of the file.

default/images/back.gif will work assuming there's a default directory under the root of the deployment containing an images directory where the back.gif file is located.

../../back.gif will not work.
