swap jquery backgroundColor for background image?

Question

A friend gave me a solution that uses this jquery code:

.css({ backgroundColor: '#ddd' })

Instead, i'd like to use a background image. How do I change the jquery code to do that?

I'm wanting to do something like

.css({ backgroundImg: 'images/newsletter-dropdown.jpg' })

Thanks!

Easy as pie:

$( element ).css({ 'background-color': 'transparent', 'background-image': 'images/newsletter-dropdown.jpg' });
