Background Images Do Not Display

Question

Hi --
On this page:
http://www.thelegatogroup.com/test/
I have the DIVs #left and
#right and each has a background image. My problem is that
neither display
either in preview or when live. I can, however, see the
images in DW's
design view.
The DIV #left should display this image:
http://thelegatogroup.com/test/assets/backgrounds/home_piton.jpg;
The DIV #right should display this image:
http://thelegatogroup.com/test/assets/page_elements/divider.jpg
The CSS appears correct and the rules point to the correct
files, the images
are on the server, the page validates, and yet no images.
Can someone take a look and help me see what I'm missing?
Thanks,
John
