I'm trying to add a background image to my DIV in DNN and cannot get the image to display.

The image name is focus-box-bg.png

Among other variances I've tried:



I'm not sure if I'm supposed to be using something else but can't seem to quickly find it.

Thanks!

Add this to skin.css:
.mydiv {background: url('myimage.png');}

Adding backgrounds inside the HTML or ASCX is not the way to do this.

In the ASCX file for your skin, remember to use the SkinPath variable to get the correct path to your files inside your skin.

Timo and George54, thanks for responses. I store my images in /Portals/0/Images/. So would it look like this: CSS file: .mydiv {background: /Portals/0/Images('myimage.png');} Then HTML:

If you store the background image in the skin folder you can use this in skin.css

.mydiv {background: url('myimage.png');}

Litterally, don't replace the url part it's part of the CSS definition
