relative path issue (noob)
- by tim roberts
I am using the following code to check existence of a file before publishing an image in my erb file.
<% @imagename = @place.name + ".jpg" %> 
<% if FileTest.exist?( "/Users/Tim/projects/game/public/" + @imagename ) %> 
<p><img src= '<%= @imagename %>' width="400" height="300" /> </p> 
<% end %> 
And when I publish this to Heroku, it obviously wont work.
I tried using a relative path, but not able to get it to work. 
    <% if FileTest.exist?( "/" + @imagename ) % 
any help appreciated.
