To run the first code you tried you need to add the .erb extension. Otherwise, it''s like running ruby code in a css/html file or whatever. It doesn''t work :) The assets pipeline works like this: example.css.scss => Interprets scss first and serves the css file. example.html.erb => interprets erb first and serves the html file. example.css.scss.erb => interprets erb first, then scss and serves the css file to the client. ... and so on. The "image-url()" code that kbedell suggested above works because it''s a scss helper method for rails. Hope that clears things up a bit :) Cheers!
