div style background:url issue

TheBrave

I'm trying to follow along in this course I'm taking but when I changed my img tag to div style= "background:url(/IMAGES/images.jpeg)" </div> the inspector gives me an invalid property value icon in the element.style. How can I fix this?

TheBrave My mentor has it typed in the inspector element.style as background: url(dog.jpg) ; with no issues. So i typed my own website out as background: url(images.jpeg); yet my property value is invalid!

Is the file a '.jpeg'...... or a '.jpg' ?

<div id="placeholder" 
 style="width: 60px; height: 60px; border: 1px solid black; background-image:url('http://www.mypicx.com/uploadimg/1312875436_05012011_2.png')">
