Hello there, I have been fiddling around with my webpage and i am trying to get a background image to pop up, but it wont work.

The code was:

body {

background-image: URL ('C:\Users\Tyler McDonald\Pictures\back.jpg');

}

I have come to some conclusions, but i don't know if they are right. At first I thought it was the space between Tyler and McDonald in the url. But i dont know, and seccondly i though it was because i was typing something wrong, but again, i dont know if it is right.

Help would be appreciated, this problem has been bugging me for days.

2 long shots:

• try to remove the space between URL and (.
  
• css isn't case sensitive but try url instead of URL.

If it still doesn't work then i think the css file isn't properly linked to at your html file

If he already has the website on a server, then he must upload the image to his server first.

Try moving your image into the same folder as your webpage, so your not connecting it from the C: Drive.
