Is your complaint about NS4 or CSS1? > The specification is unclear. Really? While certain aspects of the spec are certainly unclear - and I am always glad to hear about any parts of the spec that need clarification in later releases - that part seems quite unambiguous: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS1#url Partial URLs are interpreted relative to the source of the style sheet, not relative to the document > I think CSS-specified image URLs should be relative to the stylesheet, Good, because that is how they are supposed to be. I agree that this eases maintenance. -- Chris Lilley, W3C [ http://www.w3.org/ ] Graphics and Fonts Guy The World Wide Web Consortium http://www.w3.org/people/chris/ INRIA, Projet W3C chris@w3.org 2004 Rt des Lucioles / BP 93 +33 (0)4 93 65 79 87 06902 Sophia Antipolis Cedex, FranceReceived on Monday, 28 July 1997 10:56:46 GMT
