Using CSS. the rule you want is
body { background: url(some/image.url) purple }
In Amaya 5.3 you can use the Style menu option "Background image" to generate
this - it lets you enter a local URI by browsing the file tree, or you can
enter a web URI.
(Cool. I hadn't known that until I just looked <grin/>)
cheers

I used to work with html several years ago but never xhtml or
stylesheets or the newer stuff. I was testing amaya 5.3, working in
xhtml, but have been able to add a body background image. If I modify
the source I get parse errors (Invalid XHTML attribute "background" for
the document profile). How is this done in xhtml and/or amaya? I
couldn't find anything in the XHTML Basic or Modularization of XHTML W3C
Recommendations, except something about a legacy module for depreciated
elements/attributes. What's the new way?
