Background doesn't appear in Firefox but does in IE (I'm only a beginner!)

Firefox doesn't like my code and I don't like Firefox!

This is in my style sheet:


.header-back {
background-image: url(../images/oldpaper_RSSize(448x229).jpg) ;



Any help would be appreciated as I'm only an amateur

 

It would help me, if you post the hole page / the link.

 

Oh don't be hating on Firefox

It may be the parentheses you have in the filename or the path (../) could be wrong. You might try renaming the file to something simple as a test like test.jpg and put the absolute url instead of the relative (../). Then put that url in your browser's address bar to make sure it's on the server.

 

You will see .. your best friend is firefox and the as*hole will be the ie .. trust me

 

I didn't set out to dislike Firefox, it just doesn't like my work thats all (which is understandable really).

I think I've just worked out that it has to be a gif. Would that be right?

 

no, it can be a .jpg too.

 

Welllll, it seems to work onced I changed it to a gif and got rid of the numbers in the file name.



Thanks for your help guys.
