TD Background

HTML - Background images do not show in table cell when viewing in IE. The reason I understand is that the lower elements are depreciated and only the code below will work for IE (did I mention I hate IE, but have to do this for all the users out there that still insist on having it on their machine).

Use this:

NOT this:

Thank you JB, that is very useful. I guess I have never attempted to use an image as a background in a table. I just attempted it also on a page that I have been working on just to see what would happen and I confirm it just simply doesn't show up at all in IE. I did not notice however if it effected anything on the table. I do not believe that it did.

It seems to happen at random. I do not use IE much and by chance opened it up for https://www.InternationalDiscussions.com and noticed the head banner was missing and I was surprised. I immediately checked it on FireFox and all was okay, checked the image itself and that was okay too... so after research I came up with that code. Funny thing is that I have other images in TD that do show in IE, I believe that the problem is when you call it from "https://..." rather than within the source folder like "background='image.jpg'". Now I have to keep checking IE more often every time I make a change .

As you are checking, I wonder if their are any updates or snap-ins that might inable this to function properly with IE. I may see if I can do some reaserch along that effect and see what I might find.

Only thing that works is what I provided in the code above or image in same directory.
