Stylesheet images not loading ( sometimes)

HTML & CSS
1

I have encountered a weird CSS issue…

I was testing out a site on a live server and noticed my style sheets were loading (lay our and colors are there) but the images only load if the url includes a document name; that is: http://domain.com doesn’t load any bg images but http://http://domain.com/index.php does. (BTW, they can be seen no matter what once they are cached, so i have to clear the cache to reproduce the error) I am guessing this must be an .htaccess thing, but wondered if there was anything to be done outside of that.

I would note that:

  1. my CSS is written with relative links
  2. my host has the root level structured with a public_html folder within which ALL my files reside… but generally it means that d colors are there) but the images only load if the url includes a document name; that is: http://domain.com is really d colors are there) but the images only load if the url includes a document name; that is: http://domain.com/public_html, tho I don’t understand why this would matter if my links are relative

This issue has me scratching my head and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like a server issue rather than a css issue so I won’t be much help.:frowning:

Do you have a link or is this off limits at the moment?

Off topic but apparently its better to use absolute urls these days anyway :smile:

yeah, it probably is . I was testing out a free hosting service. http://rmdesign.myhost.zone is the url ( I have changed the page, at the moment you should see a repeating image as a background to a div)… however, it will load only if you use http://rmdesign.myhost.zone/index.php?x

I’m seeing very different results between those two URLs:

Both those flag up the big red Mcaffee warning and take me away from there.

yeah, I figured the service might be sketchy, but i have never been to start with the assumption that it must be the host and it seemed like such simple issue
