Re: Link To CSS File With PHP

[ddliu]

@noahgelman, yes I agree with you that it should be linking to the root.

The only different point I mean is the flexibility.

If your app don’t go into following situation, just forget it.

You have an app hosted at http://www.example.com/myapp,
your folder structure like this:

myapp/

index.php

assets/

css/

main.css

js/

main.js

So in your template you might define the assets like this:

Someday you decided to change it to http://www.example.com/myapp-with-new-name,
ok you have to find each template and change the links.

Someday you decided to change it to http://www.example.com/apps/myapp…

It’s best to make an application flexible and can be put in any location if possible I think. It’s the same thing like:

1. You need to have a site url configured in WordPress.

2. You need to define the attachment path in many of your applications.
