Hi
I have a background image on this page

which is no longer appearing, yet the image is there.
could someone let me know why it isn't appearing? I assume it's
something in the stylesheet.
thanks
Your CSS conflicts with your BODY tag. The CSS has "background:
#ffffff" for BODY, which apparently overrides the background and
bgcolor attributes on the BODY tag. Such conflicts are quite
common when attributes and style-sheets address the same display
characteristics.
I suggest you remove the attributes from the BODY tag and change
your CSS (separating html and body) to incorporate the background
image and color.
However, the image and color may cause problems for anyone with
even a mild visual handicap. The yellow-orange color makes it
difficult to distinguish the colors of links. The texture of the
background interfers with the readability of the text. All this
can be a problem for someone (me) who merely uses eyeglasses; the
page is not an "easy read". Just image how someone who is dyslexic
or partially blind might see your page.
