Courses Plus Student 2,353 PointsBackground Header disappears when I add background-size or background-repeat.
Using atom as text editor. Added background image, image shows up no problem. When background-size or background-repeat are added, image disappears. Image reappears when background-size and background-repeat are commented out.
.main-header { background-color: #ffa949; padding-top: 170px; height: 850px; background-image: url(../img/mountains.jpg) /* background-size: 40% background-repeat:no-repeat; */ }
