luv2roam Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 (edited) I don't know if I'm a newbie or more of an oldbie. I haven't done much web stuff since the 90's so I'm kinda stuck in ancient html. This is all I want to do..I want to add a repeating background image to a table in my sts_template page. I've tried <table background="images/pic.gif"> and <table background-image: url('images/pic.gif')> Nothing works. I know this is insanely simple. What's the problem? Thanks. Sorry-I listed this in the wrong topic. Edited August 29, 2008 by luv2roam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry-I listed this in the wrong topic. try <table style="background-image:url(/images/image.gif) repeat;"> or give the table an id <table id="main"> and then place #main {background-image:url(/images/image.gif) repeat;} in your style sheet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv2roam Posted August 29, 2008 Author Share Posted August 29, 2008 Aaarg! I thought those suggestions would work for sure! ...But they didn't. What is over-riding it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv2roam Posted August 30, 2008 Author Share Posted August 30, 2008 :blush: Um...oops. I just realized that I needed to make an images folder specifically for the sts_template. I was putting the images in the wrong folder. I think I'm slowly getting the hang of this. But other images worked in the other folder. Hmm, I'll have to ponder that one. In the mean time, I'll learn how to post under the correct topic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
