You have 2 options
1. Use the $content tool to properly format links to static resources like
css's and images.
<img src="$content.getURI("images/some-image.gif")">
which renders as:
<img src="http://localhost:8080/yourapp/images/some-image.gif";>
or
2.
This way takes much less work as there is no requirement for the page
designer to continually use the $content.getURI() over and over again.
Add the "base" tag using content.getURI("") into your <HEAD>
<head>
...
<base href="$content.getURI("")">
...
</head>
which, when proccessed looks like this:
<head>
...
<base href="http://localhost:8080/yourapp/";>
...
</head>
This specifies that everything referenced within the page is relative to the
app root and not to it's current location which is the default browser
behavior.
So,
<img src="images/some-image.gif"> will always look at
http://localhost:8080/yourapp/images/some-image.gif
regardless of the current path.
