i don't want to use the workaround of putting the image in an absolutely positioned div because then, unless i put the rest of the page's content in another div, the image will cever the text. it's not very complicated, just more so than it has to be. and if i put the image in each file then every time i want to change it to a different image i would have to go back into each file and change them all, as opposed to changing a single background-image in a stylesheet. also, it's the principle of it all. the principality. why use the new standards if you still have to do workarounds? • mjumbe • ----Original Message Follows---- From: "Madison M" <rllrgrrl@hotmail.com> To: www-style@w3.org Subject: Re: background width and height Date: Sat, 24 Mar 2001 16:57:34 +1100 I don't recall seeing anyway to set the size of a background image. But you could achieve what you want by putting the background image as a regular image into a div (so you could put it behind your other stuff) and stretching it as you would a normal image.
