background image on view?

[Chad]

I have the following view:

<div data-role="view" style="background: green;" id="tabstrip-card" data-init="cardViewInit" data-title="My card" data-layout="mobile-tabstrip">

      content goes here

</div>

I've tried various things to get a background color on my view (actually want a background image), without any luck. I can put a div inside the view div and set it's height/width and apply a background to that, but that seems a bit unnecessary. Is there a way I can get a background on the view itself?

Hello,

You can style the content element of the view:

<div data-role="view" id="tabstrip-card" data-init="cardViewInit" data-title="My card" data-layout="mobile-tabstrip">
      <div data-role="content" style="background: green;" >
      content goes here
      </div>
</div>

I am looking at this issue

I currently would like to put an image as a background, however even if I reference an image off the internet it still does not show, however the colour does.  

I have tried to simply use your kendo window mvc demo code but no luck. I have added a Div referenced test to simply add an image 

Do you have any ideas?

Thanks

            Alvar Aalto is one of the greatest names in modern architecture and design.
            Glassblowers at the iittala factory still meticulously handcraft the legendary
            vases that are variations on one theme, fluid organic shapes that let the end user
            ecide the use. Interpretations of the shape in new colors and materials add to the
            growing Alvar Aalto Collection that remains true to his original design.
        </p>

        <p>
            Born Hugo Alvar Henrik Aalto (February 3, 1898 - May 11, 1976) in Kuortane, Finland,
            was noted for his humanistic approach to modernism. He studied architecture at the
            Helsinki University of Technology from 1916 to 1921. In 1924 he married architect
            Aino Marsio.
        </p>

        <p>
            Alvar Aalto was one of the first and most influential architects of the Scandinavian
            modern movement, and a member of the Congres Internationaux d'Architecture Moderne.
            Major architectural works include the Finlandia Hall in Helsinki, Finland,
            and the campus of Helsinki University of Technology.
