image not showing up

Sent by Joel Young on 8 September 2003 02:02


Hi list,

I have reorganized the hierarchy of directories and files for a 
site I'm doing. The new system has all html in the root directory 
with two sub-directories: one for the style sheets, and one for 
images.  But with that new arrangement, I've come across 
something that has me scratching my head.

In one of the style sheets I have the following statement:
#background { 
background-image: url(images/background.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-x; }

The problem is the background image is not showing up on the 
page.  It did when the style sheet resided in the same directory 
as the html, but not now that they are in different directories.  
And I made sure all file paths in the html reflected the changes 
in directory structure.

The image is also on the server, and if I enter the full path to 
the server in the style sheet, then the image will show up as 
expected.  But without the full path, the image does not show up 
locally.

What am I missing?


TIA,

Joel Young
