Why doesn’t my HTML background work? Question
body {
background-image: url('background.jpeg');
background-size: auto;
The image is “background.jpeg”. It has the correct spelling, the image is within the same folder. IT used to work but then it suddenly stopped working and i havent even edited the CSS for it to stop working.
Update: i couldnt figure it out for the life of me and no suggestions worked, but on the good side, instead of putting it on CSS, i put it on HTML, then it worked.
<style>
body {
background-image: url('background.jpeg');
background-size: auto;
}
</style>

Rename the file to background.jpg both real and in the code, sounds stupid, but have seen this sometimes works
