The path is always relative to the path the file referring to it is in. So, let's say your css is in /css/mystyel.css and images are in the path /img, then you refer to that image in css with:

background-image:url(../img/myimg.jpg)

If your js in in /js/myscript.js and you are adressing it from a html-file like /somepath/somehtml.html, then you use:

If the html was in /somepath/somotherpath/somehtml.html, you would have used src="../../js/myscript.js"
