Why is my jQuery background-image not working?

Setting Background-image Using jQuery CSS Property

You're facing an issue while attempting to set an image as the background-image property using jQuery. You've assigned the image URL to the imageUrl variable and tried to apply it to the 'myObject' element's CSS:

$('myObject').css('background-image', imageUrl);

Upon inspection, you notice that it's not working, as console.log($('myObject').css('background-image')) returns "none." This indicates that the image wasn't set correctly.

Solution:

To resolve this issue, you need to enclose the image URL in the 'url()' function, just like in a standard CSS declaration:

$('myObject').css('background-image', 'url(' + imageUrl + ')');

This will ensure that the image URL is correctly formatted as a CSS background-image value and should resolve the problem.
