For my CD based portfolio, I’d like to put larger samples of my work (probably JPGs and some HTML) into a folder. So the file structure would look like this:

CD:  
|  
±Projector  
|  
±Images  
…|  
…±image01  
…|  
…±image02  
…|  
…± and so on…

is it possible to code this once and have these open on both Mac and PC? I know with director the seperator was an issue. Either your path used the PC “/” or the Mac “:”

Can anyone help?
