Background image - 3/21/2001 21:05:00
Anybody know of a way to prevent Frontpage 2000 from tiling background images?? I'm trying for a special effect with a large, single background image in the table, but can't stop it from repeating. Maybe custom code HTML?? Any suggestions? Thanx ranchie

You can add a large white or colored border to the photo, but that will be probably be adding a lot to the file size. Linda ------------------ Ruby Marketing

This is possible to do if you are still interested. I ran into the same problem with my site but I went and found the code that someone else used and it worked great. <style> body {background-image: url(wherever\image.jpg); background-attachment: fixed; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: center center} </style> You need to insert this right before your </head> tag. You also need to change the url so that FP knows where to find the image that you are going to display. Next of all you need to go to the page that you want to apply this affect to and right click and choose page properties then enable background picture and watermark then choose the picture that you want to display. This should work. [This message has been edited by jessecan (edited 03-23-2001).] [This message has been edited by jessecan (edited 03-23-2001).]

With NN4 there are SERIOUS screen re-drawing problems when this property is used. Avoid this property if you need to target NN version 4.XX. - Because the 'background-position' property is not supported, this property only displays starting from the upper, left corner of the element. IE: it won't be centered in NN4.XX ------------------ Gil Harvey The Host Factory Resellers are our speciality "Never miss a good chance to shut up" [This message has been edited by Gil (edited 03-23-2001).]

Interesting. Last time I used that little snippet, it was an IE user who claimed they couldn't see it. No idea what version they were using...3?Sandy ------------------ www.alleghenyweb.com

I doubt it it Sandy - About the ONLY thing IE3 did right was CSS  I can't guess what could have been wrong.------------------ Gil Harvey The Host Factory Resellers are our speciality "Never miss a good chance to shut up"
