Topic: body and backgrounds (Page 1 of 1)

Hi,
I'm trying to display a background image... and I think I have it correct, but its not working. Here is my style for body:

BODY
{
font-size: 10pt;
word-spacing: normal;
color: #3366cc;
font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Arial;
letter-spacing: normal;
text-decoration: none;
background: url("images/stripe_b.gif")
}

See anything wrong with that?

No, I can see nothing wrong with that. dbl-check the path?

Indeed, it was a path. I'm compiling and running the page in the ASP.Net environment, the image within the style sheet could not be resolved by the relative path... absolute to the www root works though.
Thanks,
Karl

semicolon on the end of your background line =)

Semi-colons aren't necessary on the last line in a style sheet.

Try removing the quotes inside url(), older browsers don't like them.

What browser is it not working in?

try it like this:

url(./images/stripe_b.gif)

for some reason, this is the only way it has only ever worked for me.
