Are you saying you're trying to use the URL function in a static CSS file? That's not possible. The URL function can only be used in web2py code -- in a model, controller, view, or imported Python module. Static files are, well, static -- they are served as is and not processed by the framework.
If /appname/static/font_folder works, why not just use that in the CSS file?
