HTML Problem (Background image not working)?

confused

New member
Hey,

I have a problem where I have a picture on my desktop I am trying to use as a background for one of my divs. I link to an online pic and it works, but to a location my desktop? Nope. I figured it may be beneficial anyway to have my pictures hosted online so that accessing them is not dependant on changing the url if i should move the file to a different pc.

Unsure how to make it work, currently it looks like this format

background-image: url("C:/Documents and Settings/Bob/Desktop/Bobs Banner.jpeg");

No matter what I try, i cannot get it to work and am sure it is a directory related issue, please advise

cheers
I did check it, I have run it against the validator tool which is unlikely to detect problems like this, but does show there are no fundamental errors in the code
