About a document route

In WWW server, a top directory is defined, and the information resources to exhibit, such as all documents and an image, are put below on the directory, and it sets up so that only the bottom can be accessed from the exterior from there. Such a directory is called document route. It will become impossible therefore, to access those images and links on a server, if the notation of the path of an image or a link is specified with the full path of its own machine when transmitting to a server, after creating a document and completing by one's machine. [ other than a server ] In order for such mismatching not to occur, the specific directory of its own machine is likened with the document route on a server, and they are made to work, putting all of a document, an image, etc. on the bottom of it.
