Mozilla composer is getting to be about as annoying as netscape composer was under windows, but this time it is partially (if not completely) my fault.

I am using Mozilla composer to edit local HTML files that I am serving via apache. I am editing them directly from the /var/www/html directory.

When I save the files, any page source for links or images gets changed to show the absolute path (no matter what).

For example, I use a background image that is in /var/www/html/Graphics for a web page that is in /var/www/html/, so I use the path /Graphics/mybackground.jpg and save the HTML file. The url gets changed to file:////var/www/html/Graphics/mybackground.jpg and then I have to edit the file in something like kwrite to remove the extra path stuff.

I believe this is related to the fact that I am editing a local file that is on the server, but I need a fix. The only workaround I can find would be to edit the files locally in another dir (like my home dir) and then actually publish them via FTP from my computer to itself. I want to avoid this because that would make me have duplicates of any files that are served as web content.

Anyone know a good workaround?
