While I'm not a total neophyte, I'm not a hardcore webhead, either. So,
I have a question, the answer to which is probably intuitively obvious
to those who do this for a living.
I have just spent the past three days migrating my website(s) to a new
host. I hadn't realized how many pages I'd accumulated in my old
webspace -- and now I have to go through the whole shebang and reset the
URL's to the main page, and the Mailto's.
I suppose that if I had my local version set up properly, I wouldn't
have to do this (except for changing the mailto's), but it occurs to me
that there might be a way to set constants for the main URL and email
address in a style sheet. That way, the next time I have to migrate,
I'd only have to change the style sheets, and not individual links in
dozens of pages.
I've looked through the CSS reference, but don't see anything there.
Not that there isn't, mind you, but I haven't a clue where to look. I'm
new to style sheets, BTW, and it's all still baffling.
So, is there a way to put global constants in a style sheet?
(Uh, and what *is* the proper syntax for URL's pointing back up the
directory tree to the main level 2 directories away? Going down is
easy, going back up has me totally confused. That's why I put in
absolute addresses rather than relative ones, and gave myself such a
headache in the first place.)
