I'm trying to link an image to use as a background for a HTML project by using CSS, the image is in a seperate folder, nested in the folder containing the HTML file.

This is my code:

body {background-image: url(C:\Users\*\Downloads\Website 1\images\background.png); background-size: 100% 100%; }

I can't get the link to work, so does anyone know how to make it work?

If your CSS file is in the root folder and images contain on the images folder. You should try like this:

body {background-image: url( ./images/background.png); background-size: 100% 100%; }
