    OK, I give up. I bought a site a few days ago and I'm trying to put some color in it.

    if you go to my homepage at www.websearches.info you can see a blue background and the table is light gray.

    But if you click on any category, everything goes white! For example, http://www.websearches.info/Kids_and_Teens/School_Time/

    In the code I can see <body background="images/blue2back.jpg">, so why isn't is showing up??

    Yes, I know the code is a mess, but I really don't feel like spending countless hours cleaning it up and adding css, I just want to give it a small change and move on.

    Any help is apreciated.

    Images is probably not in the folder Kids_and_Teens, so it can't show the background.

    There is no such folder, that info gets called from a database, the php page that calls it is in my root

    haha, crazy fryman. (j/k)

    You need to absolutely assign the images and css here.

    Thats put like body
    <body background="http://www.websearches.info/images/blue2back.jpg">

    Also css to similar way.

    This will work I think.
