When opening a file from your hard drive into your browser, where is the document root? To illustrate, given the following HTML code, if the page is opened from the local machine (file:///) then where should the css file be for the browser to find it?
<link href='/temp/test.css' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' />
It depends on what browser you use, but Internet Explorer, for example, would take you to the root directory of your harddrive (eg.
C:/), while browsers such as Firefox does nothing.
