Hi guys:) I have this line in my stylesheet and it doesn't work. I have tried various configuration like "background-image: url(design/mysite/images/verDottedLines.gif)" and still doesn't work. What i'm trying to achieve here is to make a vertical dotted lines for my left menu just like the blue dotted lines on www.ez.no/developer. I already did this to one of my non-Exponential site. Here is the complete line
td.leftColumn { background-image: url(design/mysite/images/verDottedLines.gif); background-position: top right; background-repeat: repeat-y}
This site I'm making right now is to be contributed to Exponential community. I'm not a programmer so i can't contribute any modules or any hacks for that matter. I'm a newbie webdesigner and i think i can contribute something to thedefault design templates.
My project would be to create a full featured Exponential website with a decent design and give away the site to the community so that the community will learn from it. Butfor me to be able to do this i need to learn more about eztemplate customization.
One more thing i don't understand why we could not create anymore a website that has a news, forum, shop, gallery in one site on Exponential 3.2. You could not even create a simple siteby copying the demo site to your new site.
Hope you guys can help :) Thanks!

Try this one. This syntax works from a stylesheet of mine...
background-image: url("/design/mysite/images/verDottedLines.gif");
The smiley is supposed to be )
