fixing a background
Mood:  blue
Topic: HTML Questions
Sorry if this has been answered before...

How do you fix a background so that when you scroll the background stays in one place while the text/images scroll down?

I've tried Webmonkey and Dreamweaver, but haven't been able to find anything...

Thanks in advance

You can add bgproperties="fixed" to your body tag but that may not work in non IE browsers. Better to add it as a css style either in an external css file or as a style tag like the one below

<style>
<!--
body {
background-image : URL(image URL goes here);
background-repeat : no-repeat;
}
-->
</style>

Link above is to more info on BGs and a working example
of a fixed BG that you can practice with.
