    Which browser you are using in my point of view this issue is browser compatibility. Change your browser if your see correct than fix it in code.

    Is your background image tag closed correctly? Try Mozilla Firebug, it will show any code errors you might have overlooked.

    Because your local host doesn't follow Google, FoxFire or other browser properties. Please post your code so we would be able to better help you. Maybe there's error or something you're overlooking in your code which more eyes would be able to readily spot. You can also use Firebug Lite in Chrome if Google is your preferred default browser.

    this for CSS Style code:

    body{
    background-image: -moz-linear-gradient( 90deg, rgba(89,133,16,1) 10%, rgba(255,255,255,1) 80%);
    background-image: -o-linear-gradient( 90deg, rgba(89,133,16,1) 10%, rgba(255,255,255,1) 80%);
    background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient( 90deg, rgba(89,133,16,1) 10%, rgba(255,255,255,1) 80%);
    background-image: linear-gradient( 90deg, rgba(89,133,16,1) 10%, rgba(255,255,255,1) 80%);

    }

    #wrapper{
    background: url(img/bg.png) no-repeat;
    width:960px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    overflow: hidden;
    }


    and this is for HTML code:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html lang="en">
    <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>title</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
    <script src="script.js"></script>
    </head>
    <body>
    <div id="wrapper">
    <section id="leftbar">
    <section id="leftbar-border">
    <section class="logo">
    <h1>FoodCourt</h1>
    <h3>tagline here</h3>
    </section><!--end logo-->

    What is "wrapper" controlling? Is this the background image that's not showing in internet?

    ok.
    i ran your site on the w3c validator and got this message:
    "66 Errors, 67 warning(s) "

    if you fix these, your site will be better, and more compliant. If you have missed a tag or failed to close something off, using the w3schools validator will help you to find coding errors.

    As to the specific image, i would recheck file permissions, and set it to 777.

    also i checked your css, and it says:
    [h=3]"Sorry! We found the following errors (73)"[/h]
    Each error can cause your page to not render correctly, and or you may have erratic results in various browsers

    Well for me this problem is almost everytime :d

    On local server the images are not case sensetive but on the server they are case sensetive especially the .jpg, .png extensions. So See the image you are using in the background is in bg.PNG or bg.png.

    also i have tried accessing the image directly i think ists not uploaded

    hope this will solve the problem ;)

    ok, ive had another look and im even more confused then before, i honestly cant understand why its not working, in fact, clicking directly on the image links me to a webhosting company, and thats just bizzare!

    Try this, you have bg.jpg on the server, just change all references to point to bg.jpg and it will work. the image loads fine for me test:

    um, also put in a blank index.html file into any folder that you dont want the public to view, i would start with your image folder.

    Matt you are getting redirected by the hosting company that he is using.

    As far as the background goes. It looks to me like it is not even uploaded, I have no problem changing the background image to any other images that are located on your server.

    My suggestion would be to double check that the image is in fact uploaded and that it's name and file extension match what is on your server.

    What I am saying is that I don't think your background image is uploaded. Are you able to find and link the background image you are trying to use for this website.

    Try to link the same image that you are trying to use here in the forums. If you are able to link it then clearly the issue is something else.

    You are right devitor. I have directed him to the solution but he is still unable to understand.

    Just upload the file in the ftp and check if it is there. As for now the bg.png is nowhere on the server.

    Sometimes, it may be because of a simple filename inconsistency. A lot of problems like these are caused by inconsistencies even when we think we have uploaded them. Make sure the image file is not duplicated or mislabeled.
