Hi everyone,

I've only just recently started using Dreamweaver MX 2004 (I used to be on Dreamweaver 4).

To stop the background from scrolling I just used to put: bgproperties="fixed" and it worked fine.

But using Dreamweaver MX 2004 doing:
body {
background-image: url(bg.gif);
bgproperties: fixed;
margin-left: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
background-color: #466F8F;
}

Doesn't work!! Can anyone help and tell me what to do to stop the background from scrolling??

Thanks!

Oooh, my post was in vein.

I search the Internet for hours, and two seconds after posting this I find the result!! So need for help anymore :D

For those of you who may want to know how to do this though:

body {
background-image: url(bg.gif);
background-attachment: fixed;
margin-left: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
background-color: #466F8F;
}

Thanks anyway,
Matt Blank

You can use do this:

<body background="yourbg.jpg" style="background-attachment: fixed">

Notice the style="background-attachment:fixed"

If you need any help, ask me! ;)
