$root_url not working?

[mjwalsh]

That's what I am trying to figure out.. $root_url is not something I added in. That is something in the script so I am not sure why it's not working. When I view source the href's to the stylesheets are all

<link href="css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" />
<link href="template/exoticblue/default.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="template/exoticblue/sol.css" />

Which obviously won't work when using SEF urls like I am. So it looks as if the $root_url variable is simply not passing through global as expected?

In the functions file this is the format it should be following:

href="'.$root_url.'css/main.css"

However $root_url is showing as blank obviously from the view source, and it's being included fine:

function call_metalar()
{
tag_kaydet();
tag_game_kaydet();
global $website,$metalar,$meta_title,$meta_keywords,$meta_description,$root_url,$templa​te,$kolonlar;
