How to format an html script reference to a folder outside of the parents directory












0















In an html file, I need to reference a script outside of the html's parents directory. Attached is a picture of the directory. I need to make a script reference from layout.html to js/index.js. I've tried:



<script src = "{{ url_for('shop', filename = 'index.js') }}"> </script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="~/../js/index.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../js/index.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/index.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="index.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="~/js/index.js"></script>


But none of these works. Please help!
