I've tried absolutely everything to get my background image to appear, but it just won't work. The strangest thing is that when I view the HTML document in my documents folder, the background appears, but as soon as I upload it to my server, it doesn't! I've made sure that I uploaded the picture I wanted to use and everything. Please help!
Here's the code:
