[Seaside] Paths to pictures in CSS

[Marco Paga]

Hi.
In production environments you would put a apache in front of your
seaside installation, like you would be doing it with zope. It would
serve your static content, because seaside and squeak are not the best
serving static content. You can create a web app that links to files
outside of seaside but the user can't see any difference.

This link should help a bit to clearafy:

hope that helps

The future is a process, not a destination.
The future is not a noun, it's a verb.
