But watch out if you don't, since you have:

# <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" 
href="styles\screen.css" />

IE/Windows automagically converts the "\" in the URL to a "/", but at
least some other browsers don't.

For a page at http://membres.lycos.fr/pixelstorage/template.html , the
first relative URL resolves to:
  http://membres.lycos.fr/images/wrapback.png
and the second resolves to:
  http://membres.lycos.fr/pixelstorage/images/wrapback.png
I'm surprised that that differs across browsers.
