Styling printouts

I have been tweaking a standard style sheet to enable the results to appear on a background image that is used on our website. When I tested the sheet by sending results to a browser it worked fine. When I FTP the results the background image is ignored/lost

Am I missing something?

Could it be that the background image is set via an absolute linkage (i.e. a file on your PC), i.so. a relative linkage so it can pick up the correct file on the website server?

You might want to check path that is being used to resolve the background location. If you fully qualified path e.g. c:\data files\background.gif it will resolve to your c: drive on your PC and the Servers c: drive when you ftp it to a server. There is a description of a similar problem you might encounter with burgees in the Users Guide “How Do I Get The Burgees To Display On Reports On The Web Site?” http://www.abyc.org/upload/Sailwave_ABYC_User_Guide.pdf.
