I have this code for the CSS
| Code: |
body {
text-align: center;
height: 100%;
font: .88em helvicta, sans-serif;
background-color: #AA0080;
background-image:url('images/back.jpg');
background-repeat: repeat;
} |
which works well, except I do not want it to repeat. If I add this code:
| Code: |
body {
text-align: center;
height: 100%;
font: .88em helvicta, sans-serif;
background-color: #AA0080;
background-image:url('images/back.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
|
The picture does not show at all in IE7 but the background colour shows instead. Can anyone tell me what is wrong? |

hello
That fix did not work, but the only way I could get it to work is when I took off the background colour. So I just had a background image, I realise this is wrong but it does work. |

| I have never been able to get any styles to work using quotes if the css is embeded, only when I use an external style sheet. That's what I automatically assumed when I saw the quotes. |

| yes, the quotes always work OK for me, its just when I try and do the shortcuts way on the background image and colour and position etc. I can never seem to get it right. Well when I validate it, it will throw up an error of no colour for the background, but I am past all that now, as long as it works is my motto. Of course I would like to find a fix, but the internet does not seem to have one specifically for this problem, that I can find. |

Do it the easy and proper way:
| Code: |
body {
text-align: center;
height: 100%;
font: .88em helvicta, sans-serif;
background: #aa0080 url('images/back.jpg') no-repeat center scroll;
} |
Or if you want contents to scroll and image fixed, change 'scroll' to 'fixed'. If you want background image position other then 'center', then use the other values you want:
op left
top center
top right
center left
center center
center right
bottom left
bottom center
bottom right
x% y%
xpos ypos
Just be sure path to background image is correct.
Cheers - |
