Images won't show up on my website?

Posted on December 16, 2014

I have my images in the same folder as my html files, and in the css it’s formatted as background-image: url(“sun.JPG”) ;

But for some reason it won’t load on my website?

Any help?

The URL is relative to the location of the CSS file. Are the images stored in the same directory as your CSS files? If not, you’ll have to either change the path to e.g. …/sun.JPG or move the images to the same directory as the CSS files.

Somehow it started working, think it was because I didnt update the css file properly and it still had the filename as sun.jpg instead of sun.JPG
