Text doesn't appear in DIV content section... PORQUE?! Options

[Kilikaaaaahh]

Okay, so I needed to figure out how to post a background image in a DIV content section. Once I figured it out, I typed it in, and now the text is gone. Why is that, and how can I fix it? Here is the content code. The "bla bla bla" is the text. It's obviously just for testing since I'm currently uptating my profilr in DIV.

CODE

<div class="content" style="position: absolute; left:570px;  top:190px; width:196px; height:373px; overflow: auto; border:1px solid; border-color:000000; background-color: transparent; background-image:url('http://img103.imageshack.us/img103/7388/aboutmetablebackroundva9.jpg');

bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla

Thats my profile. It's under construction, so don't judge it XP' It's the content to the right with the picture of the ground in black and white.

Thanks for reading, and helping!!

You didn't close your beginning DIV tag, or rather, you probably deleted it accidentally when you added the background image. ;)
