background image not displaying css/html
Question
This is probably a really simple problem that I'm guessing has a very obvious but stupid solution but I am not seeing it. I am trying to get an image to become a tiled background and for some reason the image is not appearing nor am I getting errors. I have checked permissions and set all files and folders to 777. Can someone point out the problem for me thanks.
My CSS file:
body {
background-image: url("images/main_background.png");
}
My HTML file:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/layout.css">
</head>
<body>
<div id="main_container">
</div>
</body>
</html>

Your image is in images folder and css is in css folder.
images/main_background.png means that images folder is inside the css folder, but it is not.
write this:
body {
background-image: url("../images/main_background.png");
}
OR
body {
background-image: url("/images/main_background.png");
}
