    Some of the bg images on my page aren't showing. They are there in Dreamweaver but not when I preview? any help?

    Just one example:

    <td width="385"><img src="images/logo.jpg" width="385" height="167"></td>
    <td width="429" background="images/top_right.jpg">&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
  <[B]tr background="images/mid_bg.jpg">
    <td height="32" colspan="2"></td>[/B]
  </tr>
    Code (markup):
    The top two ar there but the last one in bold is appearing.

    can't figure it out.

    anyone?

    CSS Code:
    
.trbackground {
background: url("blah.jpg")
                   }
    Code (markup):
    HTML CODE:
    
<tr class="trbackground">
 <td height="32" colspan="2"></td>
    Code (markup):
    I'm not sure if this is the best way or not, but its the way I'd chose.

    Definitely use CSS to set your background images and not the background attribute (which is no longer valid)

    Also remember when using css to set background images that the path is relative to the CSS file, not the HTML file.
