 * Hi,
 * I changed my header in StripedPlus and it shows up wonderfully in Firefox, but
   in IE, I see nothing but a gray background where the header image should be. 
   Anyone else encounter this problem? Any ideas on what I might have done wrong,
   or a solution?
 * Thanks,
 * GB

 * youre using the image as a background image called via your CSS.
 * cant validate your CSS because your markup contains errors:
    [http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://www.thrillerfest.com/](http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://www.thrillerfest.com/)
 * looking at your CSS I see this:
 * background-image:url([http:///thrillerfest.com/wp-content/themes/stripedplus/pic/header3.gif](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-stripedplus-header-problem/?output_format=md));
 * Do you see a problem there? I do.
 * Thats where I would start.

 * I’m a real newbie at this, but what pops out at me is the “///thrillerfest.com”
   rather than “//thrillefest.com”
 * Is that what you’re talking about?

 * uh, yes, it is. Please tell me you arent using three forward-slashes in your 
   browser’s address bar 😛

 * Wow, thanks! (Nope, it looks like everywhere else I’m using the standard double
   slashes — but now I’m going to go back and double check everything.)
 * A real rookie error on my part. I owe you! I was getting nasty-grams from hundreds
   of site visitors.
 * Thanks again,
 * GB
