Center background image

[Studio52]

As you may understand, I have a web site.
One of the things I want to do on this sit is center the background image on
the top,
but what ever I try to do it just tiles to the left top.
Can you help me?

[Murray *ACE*]

Use CSS - background-position:center top;

So you can't do it in html?

No, not as a page background image. It's very easy in CSS.

Change this -

</head>

to this -

<style type="text/css">
<!--
body { background-image:url(whatever.jpg); background-position:center top; }
-->
</style>
</head>

on each page, and you have it.

Alternatively, you could put this into a plain text file -

body { background-image:url(whatever.jpg); background-position:center top; }

(make sure your pathing is correct)

and save it as "whatever.css", and then you would make each page like this -

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="whatever.css">

Either way works, but the latter is more flexible since a single change to
that file will now reflect in every page that uses it.
