CSS background image (index.php)

sambar89 · 05-08-2012, 07:12 PM

Basically i'll try and keep this short...

I had an index.html file with the css rule (I'm using JQuery mobile)

Code:

.ui-page {

background-image:url(image.png);
}

Everything worked fine. The image displayed perfectly.

But know i've handed over the code to my group so they could implement some extra functionality and the index.html file is now index.php

Now the image is not working.. but all other styling is. I've looked for solutions online but drawn a blank. Is there something i should be aware of here, when using php files?

Thanks

It may be that the image is not in the same directory as the php. So the image either needs to be moved or it needs to have the path added in the css.

It's in the same folder.. well it was originally in an images folder in the same directory but i've tried moving the image into the same folder but still no luck

php should not have anything to do with it. It just generates the text of the page. the problem is either the browser or the server is not sending it. Are there any error messages in the console?

Hello sambar89,
Like COBOLdinosaur suggests, check your path. Have you tried using an absolute path yet? Just to verify the image will load that way.

absolute/relative paths
