Websites with backgrounds that do not change as you scroll down?

[mdude85]

Yo, I've seen some websites that have background images (usually large images) that do not "scroll" with the page. Background stays constant and rest of the page scrolls. Does anyone know how I can do this or a link to a website that shows me how? Thanks..

<style>
body {background-image:url([url]http://www.twincityscape.com/ibleedpurple/images/board/board_bg.jpg[/url]); background-attachment:fixed;}
</style>

I have that on my ezboard at http://pub121.ezboard.com/bibleedpurple -- hope it helps.

(note - this should probably be in the programming/webmastering forum)

You can also put:

bgproperties="fixed"

in the BODY tag.

theres also a way to make it only repeat going one way *X axis or Y axis* its very helpful if you have a multires site and need a background on the page while also maintaining nondistorting images for headers/content size adjustment

i forgot the code *doh* but its very easy to find if you google it up im sure. hope this helps
