Thanks. I figured it out. for whatever reason I was adding the slash in front of the folder name. It was /contact/ instead of contact/. Now it is working OK. Dumb mistakes. Even though you wrote not for points, you made me think straight so here you go!

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I am using a Mac with ColdFusion installed for my development environment. Currently, I have to go to <a href="http://localhost:8500/SiteName/" rel="ugc">http://localhost:8500/SiteName/</a>&nbsp;to test in my local environment. The problem I'm having is when I click on a link, like in my menu, ex: /contact/, it wants to go to <a href="http://localhost:8500/contact/" rel="ugc">http://localhost:8500/contact/</a>&nbsp;instead of <a href="http://localhost:8500/SiteName/contact/" rel="ugc">http://localhost:8500/SiteName/contact/</a>.<br />
<br />
When I use a Windows machine, which is not an option here, I can just configure IIS and a local IP. With the Mac, there is no IIS. I can assign local IPs all day long but cannot associate the local IP to the SPECIFIC website I'm developing.<br />
<br />
Any ideas?

ColdFusion Local IP on Mac

ColdFusion is a server-side rapid application development platform originally created by Allaire and now sold by Adobe, implementing the dynamic general purpose CFML programming language. The term ColdFusion is sometimes colloquially used to refer to the CFML language (Cold Fusion Markup Language), but can also include discussions of the server software implementation. ColdFusion runs using a customised version of Apache Tomcat. Earlier versions are bundled with JRun.

ColdFusion Language

A web server refers to the software that helps to deliver web content that can be accessed either through the Internet or through an intranet. The primary function of a web server is to store, process and deliver web pages to clients. The communication between client and server takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The most common use of web servers is to host websites, but there are other uses such as gaming, data storage, running enterprise applications, handling email, FTP, etc.

Web Servers

Web development includes all aspects of presenting content on intranets and the Internet, including delivery development, protocols, languages and standards, server software, browser clients, databases and multimedia generation.
