Can you help me with a link issue on my site?

I have these icon links at the bottom of my church website for our twitter, facebook, etc. When I hover over these image links they disappear. Works fine on the homepage but when in other pages they vanish when you hover over them with the mouse. Any clues? http://cornerstonelapuente.com/

The issue looks to be that you are using a relative path to the images ( "images/whatever") instead of an absolute path ( "/images/whatever" )

From the home page the server will call them from /images/whatever, however any other page as they come up like a directory as far as the page path goes, tries the wrong image (ie for the calendar page /Calendar/images/whatever )

Go through your code and anywhere you reference images, change it to be /images to make sure it always goes off the root of your site.

I tried adding the / in font of images so it's /images but once I save it my content editor in Joomla it saves it without the / again. Also notice how the links also work for our "About Us" section. This is not the homepage and it works? any other ideas?

There is a setting in TinyMCE for setting to use the absolute path.

you need to find in the code where tinyCE is initialized, (search for tinyMCE.init({

and somehwere in there, where it has a bunch of

setting : value,
setting : value,

add in

relative_urls : false,

(if you add this at the end of the list, do NOT put the comma at the end, but make sure there is one at the end of the line above it).

See http://wiki.moxiecode.com/index.php/.../relative_urls for more info.
