This code displays the image in IE but not in Firefox.
Does anyone know why it would not show up in Firefox?
thanks

#masthead1
{
width: 100%;
min-width: 800px;
position: relative;
line-height: 100%;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
background-color: #d1d1d1;
background-image: url(../../images/images/masthead/gradient.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 0px 0px;
}

If there is no content in the div, FF is probably correctly displaying it. Try putting content in it or assigning a height.

Obviosuly my first guess was incorrect. [smile]

Are you using the same css file for both browsers? The relative path to the background image will be calculated from the location of the css file.

Are your elements inside the #masthead1 either

a) floated or
b) absolutely positioned?

If they are, your #masthead1 will be zero px high in FF (which is correct behaviour) but will have height in IE.

I have another question.

I have another .css file that is used in my page. If I dont use the other css it works fine. but if i combined them it stretches the image

the image for some reason is stretched out.

this is the image code
<input name="submit" type="image" accesskey="return" tabindex="2" src="images/images/template_masthead/go_button.gif" alt="Submit" height="17" width="21" />

Here is the index I'm using

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"
<html xmlns=" xml:lang="en" lang="en">

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="./css/globalx.css" />
<script src="src/dropdown.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<title></title>

It's because you're adding an image to the submit input type. The src attribute is only valid in input if the type of the input is image. Additionally, there are no width and height attributes in input elements. I don't know why you thought you can just add things to your HTML because they seem convenient.

Your input element is defined once, in the stylesheet:
Code: 
input, textarea {
    border:1px solid #CCC;
    padding:0.25em;
    [b]width:20em;[/b]
}
This is where the width of the element is defined and this is what stretches your image.
