It could be a file location issue; resource.php must be in the same
directory with the style sheet. Assuming this is not the case, you may
want to get rid of "./", replace a relative URL with an absolute URL,
and/or enclose the URL in quotes. Try these:

background-image: url("resource.php?name=thejpegfile.jpg");
background-image:
url("http://yoursite.com/resource.php?name=thejpegfile.jpg");

Cheers,
