Why is it a bad idea to have a site's templates reference that site's stylesheets and media? If anything, this should be a fairly common case on Django-powered sites, because the preferred setup is to use Apache/mod_python for parts of the site powered by Django and a different web server for media files like images and stylesheets, possibly even on a different domain (e.g., main site is example.com, media is media.example.com); in that case, absolute URLs are a plain necessity -- there's no way to create a relative URL that leads to a resource on a different domain. -- "May the forces of evil become confused on the way to your house." -- George Carlin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
