This should work fine in IE 4.  XSL has a little trouble with converting
"background" to a style attribute (as documented in the Read Me), but since
you are using upper case, this should just pass through.  Perhaps something
else is wrong like the URL?  If XSL is eating the attribute try this in your
stylesheet instead: <BODY STYLE="background:url(background.gif)">

		Hi all,

		I've been coding some XSL stylesheets for a webpage i'm
creating, i wish 
		to show examples of CSS and XSL, but i'm having difficulties
with display-
		ing a background image on the page. I've tried including the
background 
		properties for <BODY> in the <root> definition and as a
seperate element 
		<webpage> - both examples are shown below, but neither seem
to work, are
		background images supported by Internet Explorer 4.0 and
with XSL?

		Cheers
		Dave.

		exmaple 1

		<rule>
		  <root/>
		  <HTML>
		    <HEAD>
		      <BODY BACKGROUND="background.gif">
		        <children/>
		      </BODY>
		    </HEAD>
		  </HTML>
		</rule>


		example 2

		<rule>
		  <target-element type="webpage"/>
		  <BODY BACKGROUND="background.gif">
		    <children/>
		  </BODY>
		</rule>
