Hi;
I was a member of this list about ten years ago (under the email
address michael_mabe...@yahoo.ca), while I was trying to teach
myself CSS (via Eric Meyer’s text) and HTML. Thanks to
participants in this list (especially Gunlaug Sørtun [“Georg”],
Philippe Wittenbergh, and others), I was eventually able to
create a large website for myself (www.thinkingmusic.ca). My
website has been extremely valuable to me, as it allows me to
practice my profession (teaching music theory/composition to a
few students in different parts of the world), and I’m very
grateful to those who helped me along the way!
My problem: after many years of flawless performance, two pages
in my website are suddenly not appearing completely as they
should. The defect is slight -- an x-repeated gif, that colours
2/3 of the <body> in a charcoal colour – is not appearing at all,
so that that part of the <body> is white, rather than charcoal.
Here is the relevant CSS:
You have 2 different CSS declarations:
/* THIS IS THE STYLE SHEET FOR "Danny Grissett: invention,
design, and technique - melodic and rhythmic design in jazz
improvisation"
AKA "grissett" */
html, body
{
margin: 0; padding: 0;
}
body
{
position: relative;
background: url("images/bodyimage_grissett.gif") repeat-x;
}
and
/* THIS IS THE MAIN STYLE SHEET FOR INDEX.HTML OF 'JUST FRIENDS' */
/* all CSS validated by W3C CSS Validation Service, Feb. 19, 08 */
html, body
{
margin: 0; padding: 0;
}
body
{
position: relative;
background: url(../../images/bodyimage2.gif) repeat-x;
}
one uses relative addressing and one uses absolute addressing.
I suspect that one of the targets of the background property is
not present in the defined directory.
Hope this helps
