Using mod_rewrite to access images better?

In my application, my javascript files are in the folder /web_root/inc/js/, my images are in /web_root/inc/images/, and my css files are in /web_root/inc/css/.

I don't like the links, so I thought I'd use mod_rewrite on them. Is it recommended and/or possible to use mod_rewrite, so in my code I could include images, JS and CSS files just like in the following example:

<img src="images/img.png" alt="image" />

Instead of:

  <img src="inc/images/img.png" alt="image" />

In your web_root folder add an .htaccess file and include the next rules

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteRule ^images/(.*) http://%{HTTP_HOST}/inc/images/$1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>

I did it and it worked for me.

Hope i help you
