Granted, that works too, and browsers will cache things, but did you notice
that validate.sh would have downloaded the stuff locally, so that the
existing relative URLs would have worked?
I admit that the ability to compose edits to the webpages whilst offline
isn't really anything worth talking about, so I'm not too fussed if we keep
this change, but I think we ought to keep all the pages consistent. And, if
we decide to go with absolute URLs, then remove the chunk of code in
validate.sh which establishes a local copy of the CSS and images.
Oh, and "What You Get Is What You Get"? ;-)

I'm not objecting to the change - just want to make sure the existing option
is considered too. I can see pros and cons for both options, and am pretty
much of neutral opinion - but I do like consistency! :-)

I'll share some blame here. Ignorant of validate.sh, I advised Karl
to make the absolutely-URL-to-stylesheets change. Sorry 'bout that.

Ah, no I didn't, thank you.

Actually, I think I prefer the validate.sh way. It makes more sense
for the URLs in the pages to be relative, so that things wouldn't
break if moved to a new domain, for example.
In r14801, I've reverted the stylesheet hunk of r14798.

I knew you'd know what I meant :-).
