CSS root directory

Question

I have a style sheet where I include background images   background  url    Images myImage png     problem is  pages from different directories use this css   My CSS files are in a CSS folder  images in an Image folder  and my html pages are in many different folders depending on their content and meaning to the website   All my pages inherit this css as it is the MAIN theme   The path used in the above example is a relative path  And obviously  this path only works for some of the pages  ALL i need is to link the images in the css from the ROOT folder  Therefore every path is correct no matter where the file is in the folder structure   I have tried     Images myImage png   Images myImage png  Images myImage png Images myImages png   I don t think a root folder selector exists    but I hope it does

click here for good explaination   All you need to know about relative file paths   Starting with     returns to the root directory and starts there  Starting with       moves one directory backward and starts there  Starting with          moves two directories backward and starts there  and so on      To move forward  just start with the first subdirectory and keep moving forward

Images myImage png   this has to be in root of your domain subdomain  http   website to Images myImage png  and it will work  However  I think it would work like this  too   images   yourimage png  styles   style css    style css   body      background  url    images yourimage png

For example your directory is like this   Desktop  gt          ProjectFolder  gt                        index html                       css  gt                            style css                       images  gt                               img png   You are at your style css and you want to use img png as a background-image  use this   url     images img png     Works for me

This problem that the        means step up  parent folder  link     images img png  will not work because when you are using ajax like data passing to the web site from the server    What you have to do is point the image location to root with      then the second folder  in this case the second folder is  images    url    images img png     if you have folders like this    then you use url    content images img png    remember your image will not visible in the editor window but when it passed to the browser using ajax it will display
