The background-image is picked up, but #outerwrap looks and behaves like
it's struck by "collapsing margins"[1]
Adding either...
#outerwrap {
float: left;
}
...or...
#outerwrap {
padding: 1px 0 0 0;
margin: -1px 0 0 0;
}
...will reveal the background-image.
These fixes also reveal a weak spot in the styling of h2, in that IE/win
has its own interpretation of 'margin:auto;' on these elements -
creating what looks like unwanted gaps in IE/win.
Change that to...
h2 {
margin: 0 auto;
}
...and IE/win will get back in line.
Declare specific top and bottom margins if you want any.
