PHP echo background image

Question

I know I'm probably missing something really obvious, but the background image isn't pulling through...

<div style='background-image: url(<?php echo $blogImage; ?>");'>

I've also tried:

<div <?php echo "style='background-image: url($blogImage);'";?> >

have you var_dumped $blogImage to make sure it contains the value you're expecting? — treyBake

First check should always be "Count your quotes", make sure they match — RiggsFolly

Syntax error Use this

<div style="background-image: url('<?php echo $blogImage; ?>');">

Hope this helps

You have a missing " before the php opening tag. try to add it and check.

<div style='background-image: url("<?php echo $blogImage; ?>");'>
