image in table

I have a table, and I want to insert an image in the background like this:

<TD style="BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(MyBGimage.gif)" vAlign=center align=middle height=17>I write a few words here</TD>

That's not working cuz it requires an absolute path to MyBGimage.gif
So I added this in Page Settings > Advanced Settings > Page Header Tags:

Problem is I'll have to replace this when I move the site to a remote server.
I tried with a relative path. Never try that. It changes the path to all the images of the site.
I also tried this:

<TD style="BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(http://localhost:1500/MyWebsiteRoot/Portals/0/MyBGimage.gif)" vAlign=center align=middle height=17>I write a few words here</TD>

But it's not a clean solution.
So I wonder if it is possible to add a background image in a table in Text/HTML module.

Re: image in table

To the best of my knowledge, you're going to have this problem with any type of image in the Text/HTML block. I think you're just going to have to suck it up and type the absolute (or at least virtual directory relative) URL. Sorry to say that, but I think it's the only option. I'd love to hear others, tho, if anyone has any.
