Im trying to add in a background image into just the header no the whole page, but when i do its like the top nav sits below the whole image, and i want the image to sit behind whats already there. Ive put the html here, could someone point me in the right direction with regards as to what to add?
Thanks x <header> <div class="color-bar">color-bar</div> <div class="topnav"> <a class="active" href="#home">Home</a> <a href="#news">About</a> <a href="#contact">Contact</a> <a href="#classes">Classes</a> </div> </header>

#example {
background-image: url("path");
}
or in Html inside the img or input tags use src attribute
<img src="path" alt="">
If the image is on another level then use "../". Hope this help.
