AW: Is there a neat way to get style-sheet relative paths?

hi,

Betreff: [xsl] Is there a neat way to get style-sheet relative paths?

some info is
contained in a css-file and there are image files to load as 
well, which are
located in the style directory. (I did not want to use css, 
but I could not
find another way to produce an output media dependent style, 
among other
things, and I am open to suggestions!) This is how I 
reference the css:

<xsl:template match="/">
 <html>
  <head>
   ...
   <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ReportStyle.css" />
  </head>

Obviously this is referenced after the html is generated and therefore
refers to the then current directory. I don't want to carry 
the relative
path info into the xml-file, other than in the stylesheet 
reference above,
unless I have to. So, is there a way to somehow use the 


if you are accessing the resulting html files from a webserver afterwards the 
best would be to use an absolute path to load css and images, something like 
"/css/ReportStyle.css" or "/images/example.jpg". both have no real connection 
with the xslt files as they are not used by them. I would not even put them in 
the same directory with the xslt files unless you generate the HTML files there 
as well. if so you could just use the simple href as in your example above. i 
think you should distinguish between files that are needed for the generation 
(XSLT and XML files) and files needed after generation (resulting HTML files, 
css, images, Javascripts etc)

does this make sense or am i missing something?
