Trust netscape to be different. -----Original Message----- From: Sandra Clark [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 14 July 2006 20:23 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: OT: Firefox, background, SSL
Except for Netscape 4 (if you care), where the images are relative to the calling file, and not the the css.

So you need to /images/filename.gif If the css is not in the root directory.

The true question (to which I don't remember the answer) is, does the relative path have to be relative to the template linked to the css file, or to the location of the css file itself? If I remember right I created a virtual mapping on my server to my resources folder so that I could use the same basic relative path (/resources), regardless of which template I was in. This is a server mapping, not a CF mapping (there is an article on how to do this on CF standalone on my blog, but you can do the same thing with a Virtual Directory in IIS).

Firefox wouldn't work, just kept not displaying anything. So I thought it was my graphic, so I would put the whole path to their sample image and it would work fine, but then I put back in my image path which is images/yadda/yadda.png and it woudln't work, I try a gif, nothing. So just for giggles I put the full path, and magically it works. Is there an issue using relative paths to images with firefox in an SSL enviroment as a background? > > > > Bob > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/message.cfm/forumid:4/messageid:246631 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
