Reference app relative virtual paths in .css file

Question

Assume I have an \"images\" folder directory under the root of my application. How can I, from within a .css file, reference an image in this directory using an ASP.NET app

Answer 1

Put your dynamic CSS in a user control in an .ascx file and then you do not need to run all your css files through the asp.net page processer.

<%@ Control %>

But the easiest way to solve the ~ problem is to not use a ~ at all. In Visual Studio, in Solution Explorer, right click your application, select Properties Window and change the Virtual Path to /.
