Accessing Image On CSS with Codeigniter

Hi wolfgang1983,

ciadmin is trying to tell you that you should access the CSS file by pointing out directly the path; so, accessing the CSS file should work this way:

Code:

background: url('./assets/catalog/images/holder.png');

If your project is itself in a subfolder, then you should add that part too:

Code:

background: url('./projects/my_project/assets/catalog/images/holder.png');

However, as a good practice to point to any of your assets (CSS, JavaScripts, images etc.) you can use the base_url() function from CodeIgniter. More about it here. However, based on your current project structure, you can't use it for this situation because the CSS files don't get processed by PHP, so the function won't be actually called.

Hope this helps!
