New to CMSM, BG image question & Java Script

[highanddry]

I have recently installed CMSMS and have started to create a template using my html page I made on my computer. I am having trouble with a few things. 

1. I cannot get my background image to show.  In the Css stylesheet it is listed at

body{

    background-image: url(mainimages/bg2.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
}


I have tried using '  ' around the directory and image, I have tried not using the mainimages/  part  .. in short nothing seems to work.
The image is uploaded into the folder i created called /mainimages/

2. I have some Java script on my original 


image1 = new Image();
image1.src = "beeover.jpg";




and

 

That I am not sure how to make work...

Can someone help me out ? I find it impossible to find the answers Im looking for with a Google search.

It's no different to a standard css sheet

First find the file... ie browse to it in a web browser once you've found it you have the path...

remove everything before the first / after the domain name

ie htttp://www.spanieldorky.com/uploads/images/starty.jpg 
becomes  uploads/images/starty.jpg

This is your url as far as cmsmadesimple is concerned... the stylesheet gets loaded at root level so you don't need the preceding / on the url

So your css will look like this

background: transparent url(uploads/images/bee.jpg) repeat-x top left;

As for the javascript... its all wrong... google imageswap or css rollovers for a tutorial
