Tiled Background - 2/22/2003 16:03:13   
I am using FP2002. I changed the background of a theme to a graphic. Is there anyway to stop the tiled background to just one in the center of the page?
Thanks!

I don' t know how to do it with any FrontPage settings, but you can go to your HTML view and put the following within the <head> area.
<STYLE TYPE=" text/css" > 
<!-- 
body {
      background-image : url(images/yourimage.jpg);
      background-position : center center;
      background-repeat : no-repeat;
     } 
--> 
</STYLE>


I hope this helps,
Andrew


PS. Bonnie might have some better idea &/or tell you how to add this to your theme' s CSS (if you are using one). I confess that I' m not much of a style sheet person.

And you are in luck. As I was cruisng the forum tonight, I found in the Beginners Forum that you can do it with FrontPage by using the " watermark" feature. The answer came from this thread.

Also in that same thread came the following, which " fixes" an image in the desired location:

BODY
{
background-color: white;
background-image:url(' images/background2.jpg' );
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-attachment: fixed;
background-position: top center;
}

The source is this Tutorial by Thomas himself. I' ve even copied this tutorial to my PC before, but had simply forgotten about it.
