If you ever look at the HTML of your CCS page, you'll sometimes see this
attribute:

{page:pathToRoot}

However, it won't always be created for you. To make certain that your
site is always portable across various servers, paths, or subpaths, it's
a good practice to place this variable extensively in every reference to
links, images, styles, etc.

Examples:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href="{page:pathToRoot}Styles/style.css" />
<script type="text/javascript"
src="{page:pathToRoot}Scripts/scripts.js"></script>
<a href="{page:pathToRoot}index.php">Home</a>
<img src="{page:pathToRoot}images/myimage.gif">

Placement of this attribute is particularly important when using
includable pages. Using it anywhere and everywhere appropriate, and
you'll never have to worry about the portability of your CCS application.

Hi Datadoit,

I�m in the middle of this issue:

http://forums.yessoftware.com/posts.php?post_id=114953

The header and the footer of our application software were created before than I joined to

this company, this two php files "header.php" and "footer.php" include some lines this way:

<link href="{page:pathToRoot}Styles/adx.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="{page:pathToRoot}Styles/Informantes/Menu.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="{page:pathToRoot}Styles/Informantes/cabecera.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">

I�m moving the software application to a linux server,so I should lowercase the style folder

and their files inside,everything worked great on the rest of files, but on the header and the

footer If I change to:

<link href="{page:pathToRoot}styles/adx.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="{page:pathToRoot}styles/Informantes/menu.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="{page:pathToRoot}styles/Informantes/cabecera.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">

it�s stop working, �Shall I create a new header and footer page? �Does this lines where created when creating the page?

Thank you very much in advance.
