Can webpack config be patched to allow css urls

[cyberwombat]

Please see this thread webpack/style-loader#96

The gist of the issue is that when source maps are enabled its not possible to do

background: url('/my/img.jpg')

as URLs are relative to dev server. When I turn off source maps it works as people have also experienced.

At the end of the thread is a potential suggestion but it requires no publicPath to be set. I bring this to your attention in case it's an obvious fix for you.

As far as I know (and I could very well be mistaken) public path is required for SSR usage. The public path needs to be there and absolute (http://localhost:3000/client/) so that Webpack is able to serve the files during development.

Ok. So this is a Chrome only issue. My attempts at using resolve-url-loader so far have not succeeded.

Thanks for the report @cyberwombat

I am almost certain I have done something similar and have not experienced the same issue, but let me try this out again. It's helpful to have that issue link thanks.

@cyberwombat I think there was a bug in the public URL config previously. I am closing this.
