simple background: tiling an image in a div

I am trying to do the simplest thing possible: tile a div with a subtle patterns background. I'm not new to code, but have never done this before. I have searched everywhere- simple examples posted by others do not work. Clearly there is a reason.

html:

<div id="text3">
</div>

CSS:

#text3  
{
  width:400px;
  height:400px;
  background-image: url ("green_cup.png");
  background-repeat: repeat;
}

I have searched extensively and this method seems to work for everyone but me. Why is this code not applying a tiled pattern as a background to my '`?

You're going to hate me for this, but it would have worked if you had just got rid of the space between url and (

url (" would become url("
