Can anyone see why this background image wont appear on my webpage - I think I am not being explicit enough withs its location but am not sure can anyone see what im doing wrong

<table background="background.jpg" width= "100%" height = "100%" border ="0" cellpadding ="10">
<tr height = "250">
<td>  </td>
</tr>
</table>

For this syntax to work, the image file background.jpg must be in the same directory as the HTML file you are writing which references it. Otherwise, you need to provide a relative path to it.

If your HTML file is in a directory and that directory contains another directory (let's call it 'images') which itself contains the image file, then you would need a relative path reference that looks like this:

<table background="images/background.jpg">
