I ma creating a new Email Template Design for sales using the standard  J2Commerce: Add / Edit email template route.

All is fine apart from where I want to use an image as a background to the cell in the first row of the output table - here's part of my code - the orange line is relevant.

<table style="width: 600px; border-collapse: collapse; height: 691.844px;" border="0" width="600" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center">
<tbody>
<tr style="height: 200px;" valign="top">
<td style="padding: 0px; height: 200px; width: 601.5px;" colspan="2" align="center" bgcolor="transparent" width="600" height="200">
<div style="height: 200px; width: 600px; background-image: url('/images/cellbackground.jpg'); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: 600px 200px; background-color: #ffffff;">

...
...
...

In preview mode (in the Editor) all is well and I can see my artwork image, but in the received email the image is not displayed.

I edited as follows (to nail in the full path):

<div style="height: 200px; width: 600px; background-image: url('https://mywebsite.com/images/cellbackground.jpg'); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: 600px 200px; background-color: #ffffff;">

However, when I save this comma the URL is stripped back to what it was originally, i.e.

https://mywebsite.com/images/cellbackground.jpg'

reverts to

url('images/cellbackground.jpg')

What am I doing wrong?

Excellent response Olivier!

I use JCE Editor and as suggested it was related to the URL Conversion option.

For reference, in JCE Editor, the default value is "Relative".

To change this, go to Components > JCE Editor > Profiles > [Default Profile] > Editor Parameters (tab) > URL Conversion.

Select the method used to convert site specific URLs in content.

• Relative - The site's protocol and domain are removed from the URL
• Absolute: The site's protocol and domain are added to the URL
• None: The URL is left as it is

Maybe use this as an FAQ? Lol!
