Yes I know those rules.
Its just that an img in the html did not want the .. whereas in the css it
did.
Which took me quite a while to figure out.

So really the question is: 'relative path' means relative to what?
It seems the answer is: Depends on where the question originates from :-)

The problem was also a problem with firebug: In style it would show the css
file, in computed style it would show none.  When I hovered the mouse it
would give me a circling figure as though it was doing something.

When I upgraded from firebug 1.6 to 1.7 it started giving me "failed to load
url"
