Resizeable background

« on: June 27, 2008, 01:40:45 PM »

im using the template attached and i want to have a resizeable background so the background image doesnt repeat it just stretches to fit the screen

and this code will resize the background but i cant seem to get it to work right in here

<style type="text/css">
html, body {margin:0; padding:0; height:100%; }
#background{position:absolute; z-index:1; width:100%; height:100%;}
</style>
</head>

<body>

<div>
<img id="background" src="http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/9342/bluebackzi5.jpg" alt="" title="" />
</div>
<div id="fixed">

I don't understand where you want that background image to go... But depending on the doctype you are using, stretching an image may be impossible.... for inserting the image into the page body. In the [style] part up the top...

body {
height:100%;
padding:0;
margin:0 0 0 150px;
color:#a0a0a0
text-align:left;
font-size:9pt;
font-family:Tahoma,Arial,"MS Sans Serif",sans-serif;
background:url('http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/9342/bluebackzi5.jpg') fixed bottom right no-repeat #101010;
}

That template is terribly written Undecided

it is also showing its age, but each to their own I guess.

I was trying to have it be the whole background of everything I figured it was impossible with this template i just used a extra large fixed image on the right side not exactly what i was looking for. Yeah it was one i grabbed of here it serves it purpose but id like to get one where the background stretches to fit

Pretty sure its not possible. And anyway, why would you want that to happen? its just going to get pixelly and distorted lol.
