Hi guys,
I have a little question I hope you can answer for me  I want to create a website with a background picture. I have tried this using the Themes option and just ticking the "Background Picture" box on the page properties and my problem persists.  The problem is, I want the background picture to resize to the size of the screen the user is using to a maximum of 1280 x 1024. If I resize the picture using Paintshop Pro to 1280 x 1024 and then view the website on 1024 x 768 you can only see part of the background picture. Similarly, if I resize the background picture to 800 x 600 in Paintshop Pro and then view the webpage on 1280 x 1024, the background does that "tile" type effect where the pciture starts again at each edge where the original finishes which is also not what I want. I just want the picture to "dynamically" resize depending on the screen resolution of the user. Thanks for nay assistance in advance. |

This cannot be done.
But if it could, how would you deal with a screen resolution of 2560x1024, with the browser opened in a window 800x600? Or, more conventionally, a 1024x768 screen resolution, with a full screen browser with the favourites sidebar displayed? You can stop the background image tiling using CSS in the <head> section of the page: <style type="text/css"> body {background-repeat: no-repeat;} </style> -- Ron Symonds (Microsoft MVP - FrontPage) Reply only to group - emails will be deleted unread.
