Let's suppose you have a nice little image of a flower. You want it for a background, printed in a row along the top of your web page. The flowers should stay in their fixed position when the rest of the web page content scrolls.
It can be done this way:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
BODY {
background-image: url(flowers.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-attachment: fixed;
}
-->
</style>
Knowing how to use and position background images can enhance web page design.
See part two, next week, for ways to use background colors and images in the web page content itself.
