Yes I do:
Check out http://www.artisansorb.com/bbsling/pages/bags.html
You'd have to go to http://www.artisansorb.com, Enter the Store, go into
Boudicca and then go to the Bags page to see what I am talking about in
the minivend-code.
In the non-minivend code, I use:
<body bgcolor="#fffafa" background="../images/bgrnd_grad.jpg">
In the minivend code, I use:
<body bgcolor="#fffafa" background="/images/boudicca/bgrnd_grad.jpg">
Other images display fine, just not the background!
As you can see, I am trying to work with the 'body backgound', but this
should not make any difference if you just pass this on to the browser,
right?
Another thing, you will notice when you go to the bags page, s that you
can not right click to save the background image, it is not being
interpreted.
I have tried tried every combination of paths that I can think of (even
the full path), but I can still not get 'bgrnd_grad.jpg' to show up in
MV.
