[Xitami] Multiple cgi directories--confusion still

I'm confused by the two config items
[Server]
cgi-bin=path (docs say "Specifies the directory where CGI programs are
located")
and
[CGI-Alias]
demos=G:\site\demos (docs say "This section lets you define multiple CGI
program roots")
How do these two directives interact? They seem to sort of overlap.
I would like to set up multiple cgi directories. Is this possible? I
have tried this using the CGI-Alias setting, like so:
[CGI-Alias]
abc=c:\web\abc\cgi-bin
xyz=c:\web\xyz\cgi-bin
Now, this seems to work when I point my browser to
http://localhost/abc/script.py and http://localhost/xyz/script.py,
except that relative paths in the generated html are not resolved
correctly: references to images at "../images/x.jpg" fail to find the
file, and a style sheet link of "../file.css" fails to find the style
sheet. If I move the style sheet into the cgi-bin directory with the
scripts and change the link to "file.css" in the html, it works fine.
Where is the server looking for the files that it can't find? How can I
get these relative paths to work?
Many thanks!
Chris
