The tilde shortcut thing only works on server-side controls, not normal HTML markup.

Yes.

The root of the website.

This is relative to the current page's location. So if the current page is in /Sandbox/MSA then CSS is assumed to be a subdirectory, ex. /Sandbox/MSA/CSS

>or this
>"~/CSS/style.css"
