Can't get a background image to display using go webserver

Might be your dir structure…

So, under your “src” dir create a directory named “test”.
then create both “images” and “templates” directories.
main.go resides in the root of test, your image file goes into the images dir and the testtemplate.html into the templates dir.

from the root of the test dir you should have the following …

image

now run the following

go run main.go

image
