How do I change the main background? Not the main shell that runs down the middle of the page, but the main background that runs across the whole page behind everything. I can change the color but what I need to do is pull in a graphic off my domain.

- In your style (CSS) find this:
- Code:
-
#mainShell {
width:100%;
background-color:#<z:color name="PageBackground" />;
padding-bottom:40px;
/* add main background image here, if desired:[/color]
background-image:url();
[color=red]*/[/color]
}
Insert your image url and remove the comment markers (/*)
Validate & Save

I'm getting parsing errors no matter which way I try it.
Sorry in the above code where some bits left from when I tried to color the "removable" bit red and it wouldn´t take  .
This is the "proper" code:
- Code:
-
#mainShell {
width:100%;
background-color:#<z:color name="PageBackground" />;
padding-bottom:40px;
/* add main background image here, if desired:
background-image:url(ADD YOUR IMAGE URL HERE);
*/
}
You have to remove this /* add main background image here, if desired:, and the closing comment marker */.
This is what I use in my shops:
- Code:
-
#mainShell {
width:100%;
background-color:#<z:color name="PageBackground" />;
padding-bottom:40px;
background-image:url(http://www.myimage.jpg);
}
The last time I had a recurring parsing error I had one - Code:
-
</div> too many - took me hrs to find out without being able to scream "GAVIN!"

It worked! Thank you so much Hilly! It's 6:am here and I've been working this code all night. I need to go feed the cats and get some sleep. LOL
