jasonc Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I have an image that I would like placed as a background, the image is black and white and I would like it to repeat downwards, I have tried to copy someone elses code!

cssfreakie Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 so the usefull part of your code is this: .resultsBackground { background-image: url('images/D89-grey-c.JPG'); } can you remove: <!-- from your code it serves no purpose. besides that is the path to the image ccorrect. in other words is your image file in the folder named images? is the extension .JPG or .jpg or .jpeg or .JPEG ? IF you have an online example it would be easier to check this out for us.
