Using a Hosted Image as Background

by **freebird1100** on Tue Mar 06, 2007 8:00 pm

I manage apartments and market available units on craigslist. I use Stone's Webwriter 3 to create my ads. I can write the html to use an image on my computer as a background that shows up perfectly when I view it with the program's Internal Browser, but it does not display when I post the ad to craigslist. I figured it was because the image was on my computer, so i uploaded it to PhotoBucket. But now, I can't figure out how to write the background html (I don't us CSS) to use that hosted image, (with the copy/paste code they generate for you) as a background. I'd appreciate any help.

Sounds like your image might have been in the same folder on your PC as the html code. When you uploaded the code and then the image they were probably put into two different folders. Your

<body background="image.jpg">

now needs a folder destination possibly "photobucket" so will look like

<body background="photobucket/image.jpg">
