This would let me alter the image based on different stylesheets which are loaded at runtime.
The way I do it now, I add an HBox to a UIComponent and set that as the bkg and add the styleName to that. I must be missing something somewhere to enable a background image on a UIComponent. Again the reason for using a UIComponent is that it's lighter. sorry for the rant :( cheers erick
