Jupyter book stripping path from produced html output

[chipbrock]

This is of some urgency with the start of the semester happening in a few weeks.

I hope this is understandable. I'll show the directory structure below, but here is the issue:

I have a perfectly functioning book, but I need to have a directory that contains examples referred to in the otherwise just-fine-source chapters. So I have a MD file (myfile.md) that has the following line:

<img src="../../images/motion/michigan.png" width="500px" /> When the book is processed, the html file for that is produced (myfile.html) has in that spot:

<a class="reference internal image-reference" href="images/motion/michigan.png"> The process seems to have stripped the path to the location of the image.

Here is the directory structure. I'm afraid that the "code" here collapses the indentation in the preview, so I'm not using it for this. I'm also afraid that I must use "bracket<" and "bracket>"as < or > as that gets messed up in the preview otherwise. Sorry.

|--_build/ .....|-- html/ ..........|-- _static/ ..........|-- examples/ ...............|-- motion/ ....................|-- myfile.html --> results: bracket< a class="reference internal image-reference" href="images/motion/michigan.png" >bracket ..........|-- _images/ ...............|-- myimage.png ..........|-- _sources/ ..........|-- motion/ ...............files |--__config.yml |--__images/ .....|-- motion/ ..........|-- myimage.png |--__static |--__toc.yml |--.idea |--.ipynb_checkpoints |--.virtual_documents |--.vscode |--examples/ .....|-- motion/ ..........|-- myfile.md --> contains: bracket< img src="../../images/motion/michigan.png" width="500px" />bracket |-- intro.md |--logo.png |-- motion/ .....|-- other files |-- references.bib |-- reStructuredText.plist |-- venv

Any idea what's going on??
