OK, this is rather a tricky one.
1) the CSS resource is loaded from the resources workspace /resources/
templating-kit/themes/<mytheme>/style.css
2) the relative path points obviously to /stk-resources/site/resources/
templating-kit/themes/<mytheme>/img/layout/navigation.jpg
3) this path is translated by a virtual uri mapping (theme-img-to-dms)
to /dms/templating-kit/themes/<mytheme>/img/layout/navigation.jpg
But this works only if the pattern matches .*/img/.* which isn't case
for you: /images/
Note: in the theme configuration one can also point to a css file
laying in the normal classpath resources (use then /.resources). In
this case the relative paths will not underlay any magic. This
bypasses some of the features of the resource workspace but in many
cases they are anyway not needed (site awareness, processing, ...).
I hope this clarifies it.

Hi,
how do I properly specify a URL to e.g. a background image in a CSS
served
by STK?
I currently use something in the line of:
#nav-global {
background-image:url(../images/layout/navigation.jpg);
}
which also what the default template uses. I configured a new theme
along
the default "pop" theme. I'm also holding my images in the DMS.
The resulting image URL generated seems to be:
http://localhost:8080/stk-resources/site/resources/templating-kit/themes/
<my
theme>/images/layout/navigation.jpg
according to Firefox, but no resource is at the URL. A correct URL
would
have been:
http://localhost:8080/dms/templating-kit/themes/<my
theme>/images/layout/navigation.jpg
I'm using Mgnl 4.1 and STK 1.1 on OS X 10.5 using Tomcat 5.5.
Is this maybe a caching problem? Since I'm developing currently I've
disabled any subscriber, so no activation takes place, and I guess no
caching either.
Thanks
Andreas
