Re: How to use CSS?

If your stylesheet and image are in the same folder try removing the "/" from url(/background.gif) and href="/background.css" this should resolve it. The "/" states that the files are in the root folder.

But the background image is still not displayed even if I put the image file under the Web root directory and code it like

html, body {
width: 100%;
margin: 0px;
background-image: url(/background.gif)
}

link it like this

<head>

</head>

Anybody could test if for me? Thanks a lot.

I got the answer from your previous subjests --

Just like images, stylesheets, if linked to the document via the <LINK> tag must be stored in the Web tree and referred to using absolute paths (starting with a slash character). If for example you copy the file mystyle.css in the stylesheets subdirectory of your Web root, you can refer to it with:

If the file is simply copied to your Web root directory then all you need is a leading slash before the file name:

I created a simple CSS file. and save it as "background.css" under the same folder of my application.

hr {color: sienna}
p {margin-left: 260px}

body {background-image: url("images/background.gif")}

But I'm unable to use it when my web file has the extension of .fwx.

It works well when you link it using .html file format.
