disappearing background image...

Joined: 11/28/2008

hey can you please have a look at

www.supaquads.com

the info boxes and the top and bottom navigation should have a particular image for the background. It was working fine this morning, but now it is not working at all...

actually, it is fine in mozilla, so i assume it is the way i have the style perhaps?

it must just not be registering in IE as a background image

any ideas?

don't worry, just got it...

don't worry, just got it... how weird. i have now used:

CODE
background-color:#eee;
 background-image:url(../../images/headernavigation_bg.jpg);
 background-position:0 0;
 background-repeat:repeat-x;

instead of

CODE
background:url(../../images/headernavigation_bg.jpg) 0 0 repeat-x;

and it has worked fine now. I have not had this problem before, with using such a shortcut in ie, but hey, all is well now!

i generally use the "general" positions...
so something like this should work

CODE
background:transparent url(img/img.jpg) top left no-repeat;
