  • 0

I am working with google app engine for a class, and while working on a project, I came across something strange that I can’t figure out. When I load a site with multiple arguments, such as http://www.something.com/something/1, the css file doesn’t affect the page. It does this even if I copy and paste the exact code from another working html file. I am guessing it has to do with the multiple arguments and maybe me not defining something in the app.yaml file, but I am not sure really. Any help would be appreciated, let me know if you need any code, I didn’t figure it would be useful in this case.

    You’re not showing any code so it’s hard to tell for sure, but my guess is that you are using relative references to your CSS files:

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">

    these will break when you’re in a different directory. /something/1 will be interpreted by the browser as a different directory, so it will search for 

    /something/1/styles.css

    the best solution is usually to use absolute paths:

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="/stylesheets/styles.css">
