Finding site visitors accessing stylesheet.css file

Hello,

 

I watch my server logs on a regular basis. I am finding visitors accessing my stylesheet.css file all the time. But there is no link to it. The visitor goes from a particular page and then suddenly jumps to the stylesheet.css file. Note my server logs:

 

76.216.213.162 - - [26/May/2010:09:15:57 -0400] "GET /osc/images/p1.gif HTTP/1.1" 200 2896 "http://jeanniescottage.com/osc/index.php?cPath=36" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729)"

76.216.213.162 - - [26/May/2010:09:15:57 -0400] "GET /osc/images/giraffe_hoodedtowelw.jpg HTTP/1.1" 200 11877 "http://jeanniescottage.com/osc/index.php?cPath=36" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729)"

76.216.213.162 - - [26/May/2010:09:15:57 -0400] "GET /osc/images/box_body_table.gif HTTP/1.1" 200 281 "http://jeanniescottage.com/osc/stylesheet.css" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729)"

76.216.213.162 - - [26/May/2010:09:15:57 -0400] "GET /osc/images/arrow.gif HTTP/1.1" 200 49 "http://jeanniescottage.com/osc/stylesheet.css" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729)"

 

Is this supposed to be happening? Is the visitor deliberately looking for that file? Why?

 

Does anyone have an answer for this?

:blush:

Perfectly normal and safe. The page you send to the browser contains one or more <link>s to CSS stylesheets. Those are loaded into the browser and interpreted. If the CSS contains a request for a background image, you'll see another request to grab the image:
