in goDaddy hosting i worked all the urls like this

img src="/img/resources/yyyy.jpg"

but right now im working in local mode with xampp and doesnt work until i change the url to this

img src="img/resources/yyyy.jpg

when i finished the project in goDaddy hosting every url i write i done it with the "/" at first

but right now with xampp in local mode i have to remove the "/" to make it work again

and i dont want to change every url of my project its a lot of work

What root folder is being served locally? – evolutionxbox Mar 09 '21 at 20:02
not quite sure what are you asking but i use the default xampp folder htdocs C:\xampp\htdocs\BG\public_html\index.php i downloaded the project from godaddy and i put it right there – Billy Mainor Lemus Mar 09 '21 at 20:09
Where is the img folder relative to index.php? What does the local url look like? – evolutionxbox Mar 09 '21 at 20:14
C:\xampp\htdocs\BG\public_html\img\resources\yyyy.jpg the img folder is in the same place of index.php and i use the local url like this http://127.0.0.1/BG/public_html/index.php in google chrome in the code src="img/resources/yyyy.jpg>" – Billy Mainor Lemus Mar 09 '21 at 20:22
right, then you probably need to change the root. It's currently two directories too high – evolutionxbox Mar 09 '21 at 20:25
