Problem with CSS Stylesheet

[doll5272]

I have a MAJOR problem lol

If anyone could help I appreciate it! The site is www.pinkinkgraphics.com

Ok I am trying to add a background to the site everytime I try to save the stylesheet I get this error

open stylesheet.css failed: Permission denied at cpanel.pl line 590 Carp::croak('open stylesheet.css failed: Permission denied') called at /usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/Fileman.pm line 1240 Cpanel::Fileman::fmsavefile('%2fhome%2fpinking%2fpublic_html%2fincludes%2ftempla tes%2fclassic...', 'stylesheet.css', '/**^M^J * Main CSS Stylesheet^M^J *^M^J * @package templateSystem^M^J * ...', '', 1) called at cpanel.pl line 590 main::__ANON__('%2fhome%2fpinking%2fpublic_html%2fincludes%2ftemplates%2fclassic ...', 'stylesheet.css', '/**^M^J * Main CSS Stylesheet^M^J *^M^J * @package templateSystem^M^J * ...', '', 1) called at cpanel.pl line 1763 main::exectag('<cpanel Fileman="fmsavefile($FORM{\'dir\'},$FORM{\'file\'},$FORM...') called at cpanel.pl line 4806 main::dotag(undef) called at cpanel.pl line 4673 main::cpanel_parseblock('SCALAR(0x919fa24)') called at cpanel.pl line 4625 main::cpanel_parse('GLOB(0xab8d234)') called at cpanel.pl line 1295
[a fatal error or timeout occurred while processing this directive]

Now the code I am using to add the background is below

body {font: 62.5% verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #333; background: #fff url(../images/PINKBG.gif)}


Thank you Angie

Shoul be constructed like this with repeat as required

body {
	margin: 0;
	font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
	font-size: 62.5%;
	color: #333;
	background-color: #fff;
        background-image: url(../images/PINKBG.gif);
        background-repeat: repeat;
	}

Thank you so much for your help I went in and replaced the coding per your suggestion still getting an error code and it did not add the background

Code is saying Fatal error timed out

[kobra]

A stylesheet should not cause a fatal error??

You are editing the stylesheet.css file correct?

What editor do you use?

[yellow1912]

Edit the file using ftp program, do not use cpanel to edit it.

Thank you both for the help I tried using FTP as suggested now I am getting

553 Can't open that file: Permission denied
st

So I am thinking I might have to unistall my zencart and start from scratch is that what you recommend?

FTP the file to your local computer.

Open it in a plain text editor or a code editor -
Make your changes - Save it
FTP it back to your server

Try this and see if you are not successful

This is a basic issue and does not have anything to do with your installed cart.
Re-installing will only bring you right back to this issue trying to alter files

Thank you for the help I will try that! LOL
I have several zencart sites and none with this prolblem lol

The original shorthand properties for the body are fine and could not be the problem in any way.
