Hi,
I discovered this same problem when I started working on generating a CSS
file and creating the links to it. I was also surprised it had not come up
before. I'm planning to fix it in the next release.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Dealing with relative CSS files in chunked output
[apologies if this is the wrong mailing list]
Hi all,
I noticed an issue with chunked web output and CSS. I'm using v1.75.2 of
the
style-sheets (the Debian package is docbook-xsl 1.75.2+dfsg-3).
The issue is that, if the CSS file-name is relative and some of the
chunked
output goes into subdirectories then the generated HTML has a broken link
to
the CSS file. This is because it doesn't take into account that one (or
more)
"../" prefixes are needed. I searched around but this didn't seem to be a
known issue, which surprises me.
I've included a rather ugly work-around below that customises the
output.html.stylesheets template. It is roughly based on the href.target
in
html/chunk-common.xsl. This work-around doesn't provide support for
multiple
CSS files and absolute URIs (which is OK for my use), but might be
insufficient for others. I include it here in case it's useful for
someone.
Cheers,
Paul.
