One more little bit of information. If you had provided a URL up front the
problem would have been instantly identifiable.

a huge difference.

Let's *assume* you are using to an external CSS file, at some relative
location: cssfiles/file.css.

A background image specified inside that CSS file is relative to the
location of the CSS file, not that of the site. So your "relative" location
would in fact be:

cssfiles/data/img/corners.jpg.

Is my guesswork correct? :-)
