Currently, Live CSS rewrites urls in the includes so that they are referenced relative to the base path instead of to the css file path.

Eg, in a file /sites/all/themes/mytheme/style.css, a reference in the css written as url(sprite.png), needs to be rewritten to url(/sites/all/themes/mytheme/sprite.png).

The above rewriting has been written, but it doesn't always seem to work, and needs more fine testing.

Title: Better URL rewriting » Don't rewrite absolute urls in CSS

It seems that the above rewriting is working, but the issue arises with absolute url paths being rewritten somehow.

This bug makes the module unusable for me. I have absolutte paths (i dont keep my pics in the theme folder), which doesnt work in either Chrome or IE, as soon as i start editing. I have a theme version with relative paths, this doesnt work in Chrome but works in IE.

This is a shame since the module is exactly what i need. Hope it gets fixed ! :)

Ok I believe I have fixed this on the main development branch. Give it a while to update, then let me know if that sorts the issue for you.

Fixed long ago. Post here if your version isn't working still (7.x-2.11 or 7.x-2.x-dev).
