Get used to developing your app using a web server and deploy all your
CSS/images/scripts directly under a webserver docroot
</Chuck Mode>
When I develop a WO app, I have 3 'web server resource' folders -
images, styles and scripts. I add a folder under the web server doc
root (e.g. /var/www/html/MyWOApp), and then softlink from inside that
folder to the images/scripts/styles folders in my Eclipse workspace
(e.g. ln -s /home/ghopson/Work/workspace/MyWOApp/images).
In my WOComponents, I directly access the image as if it is under the
web server (which it is)
Eg in a WOD file
myImage: WOImage { filename = "/MyWOApp/images/myImage.gif"; }
Any new stuff I add to my WO app workspace is then available under the
webserver automatically.
YMMV on Windows :-)
Point is, developing under a web server will save you
time/effort/frustration etc when you come to deploy your application.
