I have a problem because i can´t work my images or css when my site is like http://www.site.com/shop

Situation:
I have these folders inc img css js

In my root documents i have and in this include i have all the styles.css, scripts and metadata.

So far so good, all the documents work when they are in root document but now i have a new folder called shop where i am putting code to make a store.

mysite/shop

How can i call from the shop/index.php all my images, and css, js and inc ?

I want to avoid using ../img/bla.jpg or ../inc/header.php also because when i include the footer or menu i can´t find the images.

Thanks for all the help.

    A direct way to access those from HTML would be to provide the / absolute path that refers to the root of your site ie http://mysite.com/. For example:

    <img src="/img/image.jpg"/> would point to a folder http://mysite.com/img/image.jpg no matter what your current url structure is.

    There are some (quite common) pitfalls of using this inside server-side PHP to reference files from the root of your site(it will try to read files from the root of your drive on UNIX systems for example) but inside client-side HTML code the absolute root / works like a charm, getting the right http://mysite.com/ absolute path.
