CSS Background image not loading

 原文  2014-01-27 06:44:30  2   18    html/ css/ image/ background

Question

I have followed all of the tutorials, which all say the say thing. I specify my background inside of body in my css style sheet, but the page just displays a blank white background. Image is in the same directory as the .html and the .css pages. The tutorial says that

<body background="image.jpeg">

is deprecated, so I use, in css,

body {background: url('image.jpeg');}

no success. Here is the entire css style sheet:

body 
{
background-image: url('nickcage.jpg');
padding-left: 11em;
padding-right: 20em;
font-family:
Georgia, "Times New Roman",
Times, serif; 
color: red;        
}

First of all, wave bye-bye to those quotes:

background-image: url(nickcage.jpg); // No quotes around the file name

Next, if your html, css and image are all in the same directory then removing the quotes should fix it. If, however, your css or image are in subdirectories of where your html lives, you'll want to make sure you correctly path to the image:

background-image: url(../images/nickcage.jpg); // css and image live in subdorectories

background-image: url(images/nickcage.jpg); // css lives with html but images is a subdirectory

Hope it helps.

I had the same issue. The problem ended up being the path to the image file. Make sure the image path is relative to the location of the CSS file instead of the HTML.

try this

background-image: url("/yourimagefolder/yourimage.jpg");

I had the same problem when I used background-image: url("yourimagefolder/yourimage.jpg");

Notice the slash that made the difference. The level of the folder was the reason why I could not load the image. I guess you also encountered the same issue

I ran into the same problem. If you have your images within folders then try this

background-image: url(/resources/img/hero.jpg);

Don't forget to put the backslash in front of the first folder.

I'd like to share my debugging process because I was stuck on this issue for at least an hour. Image could not be found when running local host. To add some context, I am styling within a rails app in the following directory:

apps/assets/stylesheets/main.scss

I wanted to render background image in header tag. The following was my original implementation.

header {
    text-align: center;
    background: linear-gradient(90deg, #d4eece, #d4eece, #d4eece),
              url('../images/header.jpg') no-repeat;
              background-blend-mode: multiply;
              background-size: cover;
}

...as a result I was getting the following error in rails server and the console in Chrome dev tools, respectively: 

ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches [GET] "/images/header.jpg")
GET http://localhost:3000/images/header.jpg 404 (Not Found)

I tried different variations of the url:

url('../images/header.jpg') # DID NOT WORK
url('/../images/header.jpg') # DID NOT WORK
url('./../images/header.jpg') # DID NOT WORK

and it still did not work. At that point, I was very confused...I decided to move the image folder from the assets directory (which is the default) to within the stylesheets directory, and tried the following variations of the url:

url('/images/header.jpg') # DID NOT WORK
url('./images/header.jpg') # WORKED
url('images/header.jpg') # WORKED

I no longer got the console and rails server error. But the image still was not showing for some reason. After temporarily giving up, I found out the solution to this was to add a height property in order for the image to be shown...

header {
    text-align: center;
    height: 390px;
    background: linear-gradient(90deg, #d4eece, #d4eece, #d4eece),
              url('images/header.jpg') no-repeat;
              background-blend-mode: multiply;
              background-size: cover;
}

Unfortunately, I am still not sure why the 3 initial url attempts with "../images/header.jpg" did not work on localhost, or when I should or shouldn't be adding a period at the beginning of the url.

It might have something to do with how the default link tag is setup in application.html.erb, or maybe it's a .scss vs .css thing. Or, maybe that's just how the background property with url() works (the image needs to be within same directory as the css file)? Anyhow, this is how I solved the issue with CSS background image not loading on localhost.

The path to the image should be relative, that means if css file is in css folder than you should start path with ../ such as

 body{ background-image: url(../images/logo.jpg); }

this is because you have to get back to home dir by ../ path and then /images/logo.jpg path to the image file. If you are including css file in html itself

 body{ background-image: url(images/logo.jpg); }
this code will work just fine.

for me following line is working for me , I put it in the css of my body ( where image is in same folder in which my css and .html files ) :

background: url('test.jpg');

Other thing that you must care about is , be careful about image extension , be sure that your image has .jpeg or .jpg extension. Thanks

I found the problem was you can't use short URL for image "img/image.jpg"

you should use the full URL " http://www.website.com/img/image.jpg ", yet I don't know why !!

This is because background: url('image.jpeg'); does not work inside a blank <div> use padding in the class belonging to image <div>

body 
{
background-image: url('nickcage.jpg');
padding: 30%;
font-family:
Georgia, "Times New Roman",
Times, serif; 
color: red;        
}

I had changed the document root for my wamp-server-installed apache web server. so using the relative url ie (images/img.png) didn't work. I had to use the absolute url in order for it to work ie

background-image:url(" http://localhost/project_x/images/img.png ");

If you place image and css folder inside a parent directory suppose assets then the following code works perfectly. Either double quote or without a double quote both work fine. 

 body{ background: url("../image/bg.jpg"); }

In other cases like if you call a class and try to put a background image in a particular location then you must mention height and width as well.

In chrome developer tool, you can find if the image is loaded or not. to see that inspect and use css style tab. if the image is loaded there, then some time you have not added the css

height: 500px;

property for the image.

yourselector {
background-image: url("photographer.jpg"); /* The image used */
  background-color: #cccccc; /* Used if the image is unavailable */
  height: 500px; /* You must set a specified height */
  background-position: center; /* Center the image */
  background-repeat: no-repeat; /* Do not repeat the image */
  background-size: cover; /* Resize the background image to cover the entire 
                          container */
}

In my case I used double quotes "" instead of single quotes ''

  const styling = {                
//      backgroundImage: `url('${backgroundSrc}')`,  <------ HERE
        backgroundRepeat: "no-repeat",
        backgroundPosition: "center",
        backgroundSize: "cover"        
    }

some links have quotes in them which aren't escaped, so they mess up.

Use double quotes "" instead. Like this backgroundImage: `url("${backgroundSrc}")`,

In my case, it ended up being the div having 0px height and width. I resized divs and saw my images.

I had the same problem and after reading this found the issue, it was the slash. Windows Path: images\\green_cup.png

CSS that worked: images/green_cup.png

images\\green_cup.png does not work.

i can bring a little help here... it seems that when you use say background-image: url("/images/image.jpg"); or background-image: url("images/image.jpg"); or background-image: url("../images/image.jpg"); different browsers appear to see this differently. the first the browser seems to see this as domain.com/images/image.jpg.... the second the browser sees at domain.com/css/images/image.jpg.... and the final the browser sees as domain.com/PathToImageFile/image.jpg... hopes this helps
