    Default Background image not displaying

    Background images through CSS not displaying on GoDaddy server (works fine on localhost). URL is
    www.creativepetfurniture.com/zencart/index.php - CSS file located at
    zencart/includes/templates/creative/css/stylesheet.css. CSS is:
    background-image:url(../images/texbg); - also tried to access through absolute address - background-image:url(../http://www.creativepetfurniture.com/zencart/images/texbg.jpg). Also, renamed admin and includes .htaccess files. I know the CSS file is being read as I've changed the background color to red and the page formatting ic correct. Product images display with no problems. Zen newbie.

    Default Re: Background image not displaying

    Your image is in the wrong place for what you have in your css file

    Code:
    http://www.creativepetfurniture.com/zencart/images/texbg.jpg
    VS
    Code:
    url(../images/texbg)
    The above looks in
    includes/templates/creative/images/

    Try uploading your image to that location

    And consider moving away from GD - As this is not a good place to operate a business -

    OK to share pics with family but not for eCommerce

    Thanks. After additional review I located the problem -- These image names started with a capital letter and the CSS names started with a lower case letter. Sometimes we just can't see the forest for the trees.

    Also, looking to move site to another host, have seen many problems with gd from other users especially with shipping and payment modules-- previously done business with HostGator any thoughts -- suggestions for a Zen host?
