Body
<p>There must be something extremely simple I'm messing up, but I can't tell what it is. The two columns appear properly separated and the image is in the correct location (I've dragged-and-dropped the image into the CSS code in VS2012 to verify the path is correct.) The background image should show the left column has being a tan color and the main content column as being white. Instead the background of the entire page is white.</p> <p>Here is the HTML:</p> <pre><code><!DOCTYPE html> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <link href="TwoColumnStyle.css" rel="stylesheet" /> <title>Two-column layout</title> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="leftColumn"> <ul> <li>First</li> <li>Second</li> <li>Third</li> </ul> </div> <div id="mainContent"> <h1>This is the header</h1> <h2>Content1</h2> <p>This is the first paragraph. La de daa.</p> <p>This is the second paragraph. Doo be doo.</p> <h2>Content2</h2> <p>This is the third paragraph. Bow chik a wow wow.</p> </div> </div> </body> </html> </code></pre> <p>Here is the CSS:</p> <pre><code>body { width: 960px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } #wrapper { background-image: url(images/col_bg.png); background-repeat: repeat-y; background-position: left top; } #leftColumn { width: 100px; float: left; } #mainContent { width: 860px; float: right; } </code></pre> <p>Here is the absolute path to the image, though obviously the CSS above is a relative path:</p> <pre><code>http://localhost:10525/layouts1/images/col_bg.png </code></pre> <p>The image is 960px by 1px.</p> <p>Any clues to what I'm doing wrong here? I'm trying to do some experimentation with basic layouts using DIV, and from the information I'm seeing online this is exactly how it should be written (via CSS Missing Manual 2nd edition and online resources.)</p>

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
