Just so. The html file I was importing was a standard template file built under the old system when I knew that the associated image was going to be placed in ../Images/ I hadn't even thought about it automatically grabbing the image when I added the html, I just added them at the same time. When I tried adding just the html it changed the reference to the totally wrong desktop folder.
I can easily fix this - I think - by changing the reference in the template html to just: src="example.png" When the html file is imported it will find the image file and drag it in as well. Then it
should update the reference automatically to "../Images/example.png".
As for the changing broken links on add...I wouldn't think they should be changed at all. If it is broken, leave it broken. You could just have a message pop-up mentioning broken links and the user could run a report to find and fix any at their leisure.
