I Looked up the root..sorry
 it is DOCUMENT_ROOT ......  /htdocs/www
so I guess browsers think they are starting out at /htdocs/www  and can't go
below to get anything?
so if I have phtml pages at /htdocs/util/ like
www.util.consumergrapevine.org/showdatabases.php and images at
/htdocs/www/img can I use an image in /htdocs/www/img  as sa background imge
in a page located in dir  /htdocs/util/  ??
if so,what would be the body tag look like?
<body background="/img/backgroundimage.jpg">   ?
or should I move my /img/ dir somewhere else like maybe throw 'em in with
all the pages in /htdocs/www
?

thanks again,

Ken
