Background image question

Brad

I am using ASP 2.0 with Visual Studio 2005 Standard. For some reason, I
cannot get a picture to display as a background.

I have the following:
<td style="width: 200px; font-family: Verdana; background:
url(Images/book-side.jpg) fixed repeat-y left top;background-color: #cc9966;"
valign="top">

Is there something wrong here, or am I missing something.

Thanks for the information.

According to the MSDN library the correct order of parameters should be

background: #cc9966 url(Images/book-side.jpg) repeat-y top left ;

You can always try using separate properties like background-image:
url(Images/book-side.jpg);
