LeaVerou has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts: == [css-variables] Relative URL resolution in var() references == Related discussions: https://twitter.com/LeaVerou/status/801661659949371392 https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=618165 Summary: Relative URL resolution in var() is underspecified and currently buggy in all browsers. The main issue is, as @tabatkins pointed out in the second linked thread above is this: ```css a.css --a: "a.png"; b.css --b: url(var(--a)); c.css background-image: var(--b); /* resolved according to a, b, or c? */ ``` Since CSS Variables are uninterpreted token streams, it should be c (which is what @dbaron and I think), but some members (such as @FremyCompany in the first thread) argue that this may not be useful to authors.
