getting background image to work

Hi,

I'm new to this so apologise if I am doing something dumb. I cannot get my image to display and not sure why.

 

the code is:

 

body {background-color: #404040;background-image: "Images/layer_bg.jpg"; background-repeat: no-repeat center top;}

 

The directory looks like this

 

website name (folder)

Images(folder)

mbb.css

home.html

 

the image I want displayed is obviously in Images.

 

Thanks in advance,

You've also got the background position values in the background-repeat declaration.

 

 

 

background-repeat: no-repeat center top;

 

This should be written out as

background-repeat: no-repeat;background-position: center top;

or if you'd like to have all of them under one selector you could write them out as

body {background: #404040 url('Images/layer_bg.jpg') no-repeat center top;}
