Hi,

I'm using drupal as a backend only. I put it in http://my.site/admin/ subdirectory.
The front end is build using pure smarty, i'm only retrieving particular data from database.

As you know drupal create files directory inside ITS own folder (in my case in admin/files/.....)
So every picture or file i link must point to this directory (admin/files). All i want is to make drupal create and access this 'files' folder inside my root site folder (http://my.site/files).

I've tried to change path in the Administer » Site configuration » File system to the absolute one (/files), but this doesn't worked ( drupal create urls like: http://my.site/admin//files....) - note double slash.
My question: is it possible to change this behavior?
