If you typed the command

/images/2173453.jpg

it will look at "/" which is root, and look for a folder images in root, and then look for a image 2173453.jpg.

I'm assuming, and so is kekkaishi, that you mean "./" The " ./ " denotes "in this directory". So

./images/2173453.jpg

will open up a folder "images" in the same directory as the .html file is in, and look for the image 2173453.jpg.

Hope that explanation helps.
