I'm trying to reference a background image from an external image file with little success.
The usual code for this is

{
background:#E1E1E9 url(shadow.gif) repeat-x;}

all images within my html template are referenced as

<img src={"photohome.jpg"|ezimage}>

adding the {|ezimage} tag within the css won't work. I've also tried absolute references for images. doesn't work.

This is really buggin me, Any ideas greatly appreciated

try this

background: #E1E1E9 url(../images/shadow.gif)repeat-x top left;

usually if you have placed you image within the site design images folder you are using this is how you access it

Thanks Matthew, I was sure I tried that before. Works this time.
