CSS background images in Book module

CSS background images in Book module

We are migrating from Blackboard Vista and have a large number of 'learning modules' which are made up of many series of HTML files. The pages contain many images which are applied through the use of a stylesheet, for example:

.scopebanner {
	background: url(scatefiles/scope.jpg) no-repeat;
	background-position: left top;
        padding-left: 180px;
        padding-top: 52px;
	height: 140px;
	font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	font-size: 24px;
	width: 520px;
	color: #990000;
}

For some reason when these files are zipped and imported into the Book module, everything in the above style works as expected except the background image. When I use the Files tool rather than the Book, the image displays properly. However using the Files tool would mean we would have to add custom navigation to all our pages.

Any ideas as to why the images won't display in the Book module? Thanks.

Hi Paul,


Just wondering if you were ever able to resolve this. I have the same problem i.e. background images not appearing in the book module. These are coming from imported epubs (using Lucimoo plugin).


Thanks
