hi i read these 2 articles
http://www.elated.com/articles/html-images/
http://www.elated.com/articles/controlling-background-images-and-colours/
my question is.. can you have the background img in a subfolder to the style sheet? cause your 2 posts above don't mention in.. they do say you can have an image in a sub directory.. but is this also applicable for background images, or do background images need to be in the same stylesheet.css folder
heres how i have it..
[root]/style/images/bg.jpg
and this is my code
CSS
HTML
it doesn't work in any browser
tried IE, firefox and chome,
any help would be much appreciated
many thanks everyone
ps: IE does seem to pull up the assigned bg colour (PURPLE)
but in the other browsers, its just plain white?? really confused
