Re: CSS again and relative links

The inconsistency is between Netscape and Explorer. It's related to another 
inconsistency I describe on http://www.xs4all.nl/~ppk/js under General => 
Inconsistency.

Example:
In root there are:
- index.html
- css dir, containing style.css
- img dir, containing img.gif

index.html calls the style sheet like : css/style.css

Now if you put in the style sheet:

BODY {background-image: url(../img/img.gif)},
so a link relative to the style sheet, it only works in Explorer.

For Netscape, use a link relative to the page itself, so in this example you 
need
BODY {background-image: url(img/img.gif)}

Try it for yourself to see what I mean. Solution: Use absolute paths.
