Gmail desktop Chrome no longer supporting CSS background images #343

Description

@alicemeichi

Gmail web for Chrome is no longer supporting either background: url('image.jpg') or background-image: url('image.jpg'). When either of these is detected in an inline style tag, Gmail will strip out the entire style tag — even the other background styles.

The fix I’m using is to regress to using an HTML background="image.jpg" attribute which will allow the style tag to continue to apply other background styles like background-repeat, background-size, background-color, and background-position as taking out the url() function from the inline CSS will stop the entire style="" attribute from being stripped out.
