When I create a new page from a dynamic web template the links that are
specified as relative links in the template are being altered in the new
page in the following manner:

dynamic web template:
<dt><a href="home.htm">Home</a></dt>
<dt><a href="page2.htm">Page 2</a></dt>
<dt><a href="page3.htm">Page 3</a></dt>
<dt><a href="page4.htm">Page 4</a></dt>

New Page:

<dt><a href="file:///D:/Projects/Demo5/home.htm">Home</a></dt>
<dt><a href="file:///D:/Projects/Demo5/Page2.htm">Page 2</a></dt>
<dt><a href="file:///D:/Projects/Demo5/Page3.htm">Page 3</a></dt>
<dt><a href="file:///D:/Projects/Demo5/Page4.htm">Page 4</a></dt>
<dt>

I do not want that file path info in my links. It will break my site when I
do transfer it. Can somebody please tell me what I am doing wrong here?
 
1) Do you have your FP Site open (not just the page) when you are creating the new page
2) Have you saved the page in the site before checking the links

When you save the new page, the links should revert to relative links.
If they don't, then do you have a website open before opening/creating
the page?
