How to reference to an image in another folder?

Question

I have a style sheet at ../mytheme/css/layouts/mystyle.css. I'd like to reference to an image at ../mytheme/images/myimage.png. However, when I use this path in the mystyle.css file, the computer is looking for the picture at ../mytheme/css/images/myimage.png, which is wrong.

How can I set the correct path?

Answer 1

the relative path inside mystyle.css should be

../../images/myimage.png

---

You start from layout folder, so

../ up to css folder
../ up to mytheme folder
images/ enter the image folder

then pick the right image
