Question

I used to create a unique header and load it in all my pages like this.

<?php
    require_once('include/_header.php');
?>

    <div id="main">
       <!-- My Page -->
    </div>

<?
   require_once('include/_footer.php');
?>

In my root folder I have a folder named css where I put all my css stylesheets
in the header I call <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css" type="text/css">.
Now, suppose I have to create a subfolder inside my root and I create a web page into it. When I call my stylesheets from the header, the page doesn’t show correctly, because I call the stylesheet in a wrong way. How can I call my stylesheet in a way so that it can always be reachable from any position?

Here is the schema:

css
  -style.css
include
  -_header.php
  -_footer.php
folder
  -mypage.php

Answer 1

Use an absolute path:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/style.css" type="text/css">

(Note the slash before the css directory)
