Hello!

I'm sorry if I'm in the wrong forum. I've just registered, and I'm still not 100% familiar with the layout... Sad

I'm having a hard time trying to display a background image in one of my table cells. Dreamweaver is previewing the table with the image, but when I post to the server and preview it's not there. yes, the image is there, and the path to the image is correct. here is the CSS code I'm using:

.green {
     background-color: #f6f6f6;
     background-image:url(images/green_bg.jpg);
     background-position: top left;
     background: no-repeat;
     }

I'm putting the code here:

<td class="green">

As I mentioned before it is showing up in dreamweaver, but when I view the on the site, it just displays the background color. I've also removed the background color to verify that wasn't canceling it out..

any help would be greatly appreciated...

Is the table for tabular data or are you trying to layout your design with tables?

it's for tabular data. I hate laying things out with tables...

I might have figured it out though.

Did you manage to get this

Did you manage to get this working? I was going to suggest setting a width and height to the td class.

Also the background: no-repeat; is stopping anything from showing in my tests.. try changing that to background-repeat: no-repeat; and see if that helps.

Just ignore this if you already got it working lol..

Thanks for checking in! I did actually get it working, and it was exactly that. I changed background: no-repeat; to background-repeat: no-repeat and everything works perfectly.

Thanks everyone! Smile
