CSS - Image Links Problem - El Forum - 12-14-2008

I have structure like this
system
public_html
-public/images
-public/css
So, my system is below my index.php. My actual files, on my local server, are http://localhost/my/mypage/index.php
So, system is at http://localhost/my/system (was testing how will it work if I put it before public_html; so here mypage is ACTING like public_html). Anyways.
I am including my CSS like echo link_tag('/public/css/admincp.css');
In my CSS, I have a background image like background:#fff url(/public/images/footer_bg.gif) top left repeat-x;
Now, my CSS link works but image doesn't. I understand that link_tag() function appends base_url in front of the CSS link.
Is there a way that I can do the same for my background images? I don't want to have to change path if I change a directory.
What if I rename my public_html (in this case mypage) directory?
So, in short, mypage is ACTING like public_html but is NOT public_html, /public/images/... links won't work because mypage is at http://localhost/my/mypage (it's /my/mypage/public/image/...)
Not sure if I explained it properly.
Thanks

try this
background:#fff url('../images/footer_bg.gif') top left repeat-x;
its refer on CSS file location. then you have to locate image by css file location is ../images/ =)

Thanks. I was hoping that there's a way to pass base URL to css file (if I rename it to .php and use header to change Content Type). Oh well.
Thanks
