Absolute Path-
Absolute paths refer to the very specific data line pointing directly to your website. The absolute path is also often referred to as the URL.
Relative Path-
Relative paths are used more frequently than absolute paths and are used when you need to link to another page within your site or include an image or something else from your own site.
A storyboard is a diagram of a Web site‘s structure showing all the pages in the site and indicating how they are linked together. There are different types of storyboards including Hierarchal, Linear, Augmented and Mixed.
Hierarchal - the pages are linked going from the most general page down to more specific pages.
Linear structure - each page is linked with the pages that follow and precede it in an ordered chain.
Augmented Linear - each page contains an additional link back to the opening page.
Mixed structure -Mixed structures just mean that you have a combination of structures. For instance a mixed structure might be a website with an over all Hierarchal structure with each page being more specific then the last. Each page leads to the next in a linear structure. All the pages have a link to the original page. This would be an example of a website using mixed.
