I would think it would be better (easier?) to do it using the stylesheet as that is setup for that kind of activity already.

 

Also I am new to the whole php thing myself but if you look at how the images are called in other instances in osC it seems that the syntax is different from what you have, it usually looks like this

 

<?php echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'table_background_contact_us.gif'); ?>

 

I do not know if it would be different because you want to use it as a background or not but off the top of my head I cannot think why it would be.

The Knowledge Base is a wonderful thing.

Do you have a problem? Have you checked out Common Problems?

There are many very useful osC Contributions

Are you having trouble with a installed contribution? Have you checked out the support thread found Here

BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP!!! You did backup, right??

You do it in the stylesheet...

 

Example:

TR.header {
background-image: url(images/my_background.gif);

}

(Note: do not substitute an actual URL where it states "url"...leave it as "url".)
