Multiple sites & linking to assets

[eluser]Anonymous[/eluser]
Hi,

I've got the following problem:

I have a local development webserver running with this setup:

Code:

-www
  -CLIENT1
    -application
    -system
    -assets
  -CLIENT2
    -application
    -system
    -assets

Each client map has its own .htacces like this:

Code:

RewriteEngine on
  RewriteBase /CLIENT1/
  RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|imgs|tmp|public|downloads|robots\.txt)
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

This way i can upload a clients map directly to a clients production server, with minimal changes.

Now i want to link in my view files to images like this:

Code:

<img src="/assets/test.jpg">

but!, and here's my problem: this way the images wil link on my development server to:
/assets/test.jpg
instead of
/CLIENT1/assets/test.jpg

Is there a way to redirect all calls from /assets/ to {CLIENT}/assets/ ?
my .htacces knowledge is really to short on this
