    Default Header won't display in Firefox

    Hi, our header will not show up in Firefox(3.6.3), but is fine in IE.

    See here- http://www.talair.com.au/

    I have tried re-sizing the actual image as well as looking at tweaking the stylesheet, but to no avail.

    I'm pretty new to this so would appreciate any assistance.

    Using the latest version of Zencart with modified template.

    It's possible that most browsers don't like spaces in the filenames of background images, as you have here. Or it could be related to one of the many validation errors waiting to be cleared up.

    Thanks for posting back. Whenever possible I test this type of advice on the target site before committing the post, but this was one of the rare occasions when that wasn't possible. So it's helpful to have it confirmed that this was was the root problem.

    Use hyphens not underscores if you can.

    Searchengines don't treat underscore as a word separator.

    I agree. There is a belief in SEO circles that well-constructed image names might possibly have a marginally beneficial effect in search engine indexing, and more certainly, it does no harm.

    However, in this specific case the image in question is a CSS background image, and it's very unlikely that the search engines will take purely presentational elements into account. Still a good habit to get into though.
