Stylesheet (CSS) is not loading in my Sails application

Question

I've placed a style sheet style.css inside the /assets/styles -folder and embedded it via <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css"> in my something.ejs file.

But the stylesheet is not loading. Has anyone an idea?

Answer 1

Use the following to give the correct location of style sheet:

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

The first .. will take it to views folder, the next .. will take it to parent folder Employees , now you can give the path to your stylesheet.

This is because the path must always be relative to current .ejs or some other current file's location in the directory.
