Config File: ``` [/] tools.staticdir.root = "/Users/phil/Dropbox/Projects/AppName" [/main.css] tools.staticfile.on = True tools.staticfile.filename = "/Users/phil/Dropbox/Projects/AppName/css/main.css" [/images] tools.staticdir.on = True tools.staticdir.dir = "images" ``` CherryPy Code: ``` import cherrypy, os class AppName(object): def index(self): return "<img src='images/logo.jpeg'>" index.exposed = True cherrypy.config.update('/Users/phil/Dropbox/Projects/AppName/conf/AppName.config') cherrypy.quickstart(AppName()) ``` My problem is that it doesn't work, I tried everything with combining paths and so on but the image and the css won't load when I do sth like return '" Here is the error I get when loading my Application: ``` 127.0.0.1 - - [24/May/2012:22:28:47] "GET /images/logo.jpeg HTTP/1.1" 404 1268 "http://localhost:8080/" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_7_4) AppleWebKit/536.5 (KHTML, li…

Not sure what the Problem was, but this works:

```
[/]
tools.staticdir.root = "/Users/phil/Dropbox/Projects/AppName"

[/images]
tools.staticdir.on = True
tools.staticdir.dir = "images"
```

Start App with:

```
cherrypy.quickstart(AppName(), '/', 'AppName.config')
```

CherryPy Code:

```
def index(self):
    return "<img src='/images/logo.jpeg'>"
index.exposed = True
```

I think the / before the images is also important. Thanks to all
