How to set a background image on QTextedit html element?

Hi,

I have a QTextEdit which has HTML code with CSS properties, all works fine except images backgrounds...

Qt Code:

Switch view

myTextEdit->setHtml(
            "<html>"
            "<head>"
            "<style type='text/css'>"
            "body { background-image: url(:/images/plate.png); }"
            "</style>"
            "</head>"
 
            "<body>"
            "<h1>Hello World!</h1>"
            "</body></html>"
);

myTextEdit->setHtml(
            "<html>"
            "<head>"
            "<style type='text/css'>"
            "body { background-image: url(:/images/plate.png); }"
            "</style>"
            "</head>"

            "<body>"
            "<h1>Hello World!</h1>"
            "</body></html>"
);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

This: background-image: url(:/images/plate.png); doesn't work as expected...

Am i doing something wrong? I want to set a background image from resource file to a specific html element.... So the <body> is just a test...

ps. i want to use CSS in html not the Qt Style Sheet system, because i need to style html elements!

Any suggestion? Thanks
