Background Image Example
The following example specifies a background image for the whole page (via the 'body' tag). We position the image in the center of the page and prevent it from repeating across the page.
body { background-image: url("http://yoursite.com/images/image_name.gif"); background-position: 50% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat; }
background
property to set all the background properties at once. Therefore, we could rewrite the above code to this:
body { background: url("http://yoursite.com/images/image_name.gif") 50% 50% no-repeat; }
Where Do I Put the Code?
To apply the background image to every page on your website, put the code into an external style sheet.If you want the background image to appear on a single page only, surround the code by
<style>
tags, and place between the document's <head>
tags.
