Mint Form Template Question (.fb_group)

[terp]

At first, I went into the images and modified the bg image of the mint template, hoping to match my template; I went back in to the site and refreshed it (and cleared cache), but the background did not change. I therefore went into the mint css and changed the background color code and it worked perfectly.

Not knowing my CSS, I thought I would ask: why is the url(bg.gif) in the following section?

.fb_group{
	border:0px solid #ffff99;
	padding-bottom:10px;
	background:#000000 url(bg.gif) repeat-x;
	color:white;
	margin-bottom:10px;

I can't seem to understand why the bg image is used when the background:# is doing the trick for me...but I usually back into accomplishing what I am trying to do, so want to do things right this time and ask. Thanks, guys.

Good question. It probably isn't doing anything. I'm not 100% sure, but I think the url would have to have some path info on it to actually use the bg image!
