css script need background image relative to document root

1 New Member
I have a different table background image to be displayed for pages residing under different directories. I want the css script to indicate the table background image relative to each page. Each directory contains a subdirectory "/images" each of which contains a different image with the same filename "entryimage.jpg "

Here's the css class I've got that is not relative:
*************** ***
.bgentrypagepic {

background-image: url(/images/entryimage.jpg) ;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
*************** ***
Will greatly appreciate a solution.

Hi,
Firstly use code tags, its easier to read secondly you are using an absolute root. try this code....

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. .bgentrypagepic {
  2.  
  3. background-image: url(images/entryimage.jpg);
  4. background-repeat: no-repeat;
  5. }
NOTE i removed the / from before the /images.

i think that will work better as CSS put in between the head tags of the document

Hi all, I am using a background image via a stylsheet. I've used this code: background-image:url("/images/tile.gif"); (which I think is correct) The image doesn't show up however, the path, the filename etc etc, everything checks out ok.

It seems that IE is picking

Hi there, I'm trying to create a containing box (relative position), and within it, I'm trying to line that box with four (top, right, left, bottom) thin boxes that contain a repeated background image, thus creating a kind of fancy border. What would be the best practice to do that? I thought that if the containor box was relative and the contained boxes were absolute, that would work because the absolute boxes would be measured...

I am building a default sheet for my linux-related pages. Since many linux users still rely on/prefer viewing textmode and unstyled content I try to stick to the correct html tags to pertain good readibility on browsers w/o css-support. For important notes, warnings etc I use the <pre> tag, which shows in a neat bordered box when viewed with css, and depending on its class a clarifying background-image is shown. I would like the...

I hope I can explain this well enough to understand. I have a master page that is used by almost all of the pages in my site. On the master page is a table. In one of the cells in this table, I have set the background to display an image that is located in a directory called "images" which is just off the root directory. Here's the problem: Any page that is not located in the root directory (where the master page is located) cannot...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
