Hi, the filename in the URL doesn’t need quotes. Try it without and see if that makes a difference.

body {

background-image: url(dksvhasulinflvuad.gif);

}

I’m using safari 3.1 on a windows machine and neither I nor my mac based client were getting a proper

body {background-image: url(”dksvhasulinflvuad.gif”);}

Now I have

body {margin-’all’: 0px;

.wrap {background-image: url(”dksvhasulinflvuad.gif”);}

THANKS APPLE!

but its nice to see that others have hit this as well, thought I was crazy for a few minutes.

Hi Lila

You have a mistake in your CSS.

Remove the comma between top and left.

background-position: top, left;

just becomes

background-position: top left;

Same problem here..
Here is my code:
body{bg-color:#fff; background-image:url(img/sfondo.jpg);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:top, left;
background-attachment: fixed;}
on Safari for Windows it is displayed twice, one with a 100 px padding on top, the second with a 100 px padding on left… no problem elsewhere..

oops, I still had a user style sheet active that was interfering with other sites.

Thanks Jason

I wish that were the cause, but on my site I’m using good old fashioned charset=iso-8859-1 not UTF-8. Adobe are using UTF-8 on their site.

I’ve had the opportunity to check it on Safari on my Mac and it’s fine it just seems to affect the windows version.

Maybe it’s something to do with the DocType. I’ll investigate further.

delete the “@charset “UTF-8″;” at the top of your CSS
