|
Background images are not supported by a few of the
major email clients (mostly the desktop client ones). Because of this,
background images used via the background image and background CSS
attributes will be stripped as they do not render in all clients. An
easy way to check whether or not a feature is supported is to check its
base features. For example: Gmail and Yahoo do support background images, thus explaining why you're not seeing issues in Gmail. The background CSS attribute uses background-image, background-position, background-repeat, background-attachment and background-color to translate what it is trying to render (basically a shorthand method). Since background-color is the only one supported, it is a better idea to stick with background-color instead (or the bgcolor attribute on td and table tags). |
