css-background-image

I have the following CSS code:

.yellow {
    background-image: url('/images/yellowlight.png');
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    height:100%;
    width:100%;
}

and the following HTML code:

<div class="yellow">&nbsp;</div>

However, the div on the page does not have the image. You can see this by clicking on the blue "Logs Status" button (in the tab box) at http://cl58logs.co.cc/.
