CSS Images with Relative Url Sometimes Relative to Page Url in Ie

Absolute vs relative URLs

In general, it is considered best-practice to use relative URLs, so that your website will not be bound to the base URL of where it is currently deployed. For example, it will be able to work on localhost, as well as on your public domain, without modifications.

How to go up a level in the src path of a URL in HTML?

Use .. to indicate the parent directory:

background-image: url('../images/bg.png');

CSS background-image - What is the correct usage?

The path can either be full or relative (of course if the image is from another domain it must be full).

You don't need to use quotes in the URI; the syntax can either be:

background-image: url(image.jpg);

Or

background-image: url("image.jpg");

However, from W3:

Some characters appearing in an unquoted URI, such as parentheses, white space characters, single quotes (') and double quotes ("), must be escaped with a backslash so that the resulting URI value is a URI token: '\(', '\)'.

So in instances such as these it is either necessary to use quotes or double quotes, or escape the characters.
