I am using jQuery and would like to display the images from my PC, rather than hosting them. I have the following:
/* works fine: */
.ui-widget-header .ui-icon {
background-image: url(images/ui-icons_2e83ff_256x240.png);
}
/* does not work: */
.ui-widget-header .ui-icon {
background-image: url(file:///C:/ui-icons_2e83ff_256x240.png);
}
When I put file:///C:/ui-icons_2e83ff_256x240.png in a browser, it displays the actual image beautifully. Both locations are valid image locations.
Could this not working be to do with the image being a sprite? Does anyone have any ideas on this one? Many thanks.
