Hi Robert!

Without STK it's a little more tricky, the STK (regardless of whether you use 
the templates or not) provides many useful functions...

Personally, I really like to use:

* freemarker for the templates
* the inline-templating module to load the templates from JCR, and be able to 
publish templates from author->public
* storing images and PDFs in DMS, to keep a separation between binary and 
normal content

To link to an image, use it's DMS path, appended by the image file-name, 
something like: ${contextPath}/dms/myfolder/myimage/myimage.png
In theory, you could put your CSS in the DMS too.

If you're using the magnolia community edition, you may want to take a look at 
the openmind "simplemedia" module. This will make it easy to get links to 
images, also with automatic thumbnails.

Regards from Vienna,

Richard

Betreff: [magnolia-user] Where to store and how to access css and images in page


Hello.

I am a Magnolia noob, but loving what I see so far. I had one quick question: I 
am making my templates from scratch and would like to know where to store them 
and how to access them in my templates. 

I understand the images can be stored in the DMS (Documents) but then how do I 
access them with an <img> tag in my template?

Same deal for css. 'Best practice' seems to be store them under STK Resources. 
But I am not using STK and probably won't even have it installed on the 
production server, so that doesn't sound like a good idea. Anyway, once I have 
figured out where to store it, same question, how do I access it with a <style> 
tag from my template?

Many thanks,
Bob
