Oh. Then you would want...

.../../ads/burst728x90.txt

In painful detail:

'ssis.htm' is in the 'code' directory.

the first '../' takes you up to the 'seasonal' directory

the second '../' takes you up to the 'public_html' directory.
This directory has the 'seasonal' directory you just came from,
but also the 'ads' directory you are going to.

From that directory you go down into the 'ads' directory with 'ads/'
before calling the text file.
