Thank you Ivo. Your suggestion makes a lot of sense so I tried it out. Unfortunately, after adding TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS and its associated tuple into the settings.py file, I tried to restart the development server to see if it worked and it didn't. I checked the page source again and it's still looking for /view/stylesheet.css. Am I missing something else?
