I have a skin in which there is a lot of custom html including images linking to pages within my portal.

I'm wondering if I can link to a page within my portal from the skin without knowing the full path including tabid of the page?  Is there a keyword of any sort I can put on a querystring so that the engine will find the page?  For example, if I didn't have the page created yet, but I wanted to link to it within the skin knowing I'm going to create such a page once I build the portal out .. is this possible?

Wouldn't it be easier not to code the links at all, rather just use the links module, then in the module settings turn off the container so it looks like part of the page?

 

Anyhow I do not know the answer to your question specifically, it looks to me like an impossible task honestly.

There's no token as such that will work to identify a page in the way you want.  I'd agree on using a links module, but I do have links to pages in some skins.  I link to disclaimers, copyright, etc. instead of using DNN's options, and just provide a link to a HTML page that opens in a new window with a JavaScript close button.  I'll also have a link to a "Why Register?" page, sometimes a designer info page or a contact page that runs outside of DNN.  But I don't link to DNN pages in the skin normally, and if I do I already know the URL including TabID.
