Re: [mv] So How Does MV Process Background Images?
I defintely see that the background is not showing up however when I entered
this in the browser:
(Which is where the background image is pointing too in the MV case)
http://www.artisansorb.com/images/boudicca/bgrnd_grad.jpg
Here's the problem you are missing a path, this is the fixed link:
http://www.artisansorb.com/artisansorb/images/boudicca/bgrnd_grad.jpg
So your MV code should look like:
<body bgcolor="#fffafa"
background="/artisansorb/images/boudicca/bgrnd_grad.jpg">
Problems like these are easy to troubleshoot by figuring out what the direct
ink is to the background then removing the leading domain info and you have
your code.
