Answer 1

Do u want set background image for your table or for individual cell in UITableView
If it is for setting the background image then do the following:

UIImage *bgImage = [UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"background.png" ofType:nil]];
UIColor *bgColor = [[UIColor alloc] initWithPatternImage:bgImage];  self.view.backgroundColor = bgColor;    
[tableName setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];

where tableName is the name of your UItableView

If you want to set background image for UITableView cell then do the following:

cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
UIImageView *cellBG_tap = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"image.png" ofType:nil]]];
cell.backgroundView = cellBG_tap; 
[cellBG_tap release];
