Background Image won't show??

[Cobra23]

I never thought i'd ask for css help. However i have a problem with setting the background image to display. Css is:

float: left;
padding: 15px 0;
position: absolute;
left: 0; 
        top:45px;
display: none;
width: 600px;
height: 300px;
background: url (images/navbg.png) repeat;
color: #fff;
-moz-border-radius-bottomright: 5px;
-khtml-border-radius-bottomright: 5px;
-webkit-border-bottom-right-radius: 5px;
-moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 5px;
-khtml-border-radius-bottomleft: 5px;
-webkit-border-bottom-left-radius: 5px;

I'd have to guess it's a path issue. Have you tried using the full URL to the image file?

[Cobra23]

strangely .... i never have a css problem i couldn't solve. I tried the path three different ways !! Copied image to two folders and then put in both full paths and it still doesn't work !! If i use background-colour then the colour will be shown instead.

When I say full URL, I mean http://www.yoursite.com/path/to/image.jpg, not a filesytem path. Is that what you tried?

[Pikachu2000]

I just tried something else too, when I put a space between url and the parenthesis, it prevented the image from loading. Remove the space and try it again . . .

[Cobra23]

Thats weird !! The space solved the problem. However other images are not affected with the space there. That is surely very strange.

 

Cheers mate. Do you know why that is?

No, I didn't look into it any further than adding/removing the space.
