Center background image 2 (help me Micha! ;-)

#1

I asked:
A customer of mine LOVES very much his writing paper. So he would like that I
make the web pages of his site with his logo as background. The logo has to
display once and be centered at the browser page both vertically and
orizontally (even when you narrow it).

Micha very kindly answered

Use CSS and the background property, e.g.

body {
background: #RGB url(/path/to/image) no-repeat center
}

HTH
Micha

Well, it works fine until I put some content inside. In fact if I put a Div or
a tabel witha a lot of text inside and then i scroll the browser window the
background image is not correctly displayed (looks broken in different lines)

I work on Mac, and the problem is only with IE (as usually) ;-)

Thx!!!

#2

I resolved like this.

<body bgproperties="fixed">

is it correct?
It works fine?

#3

No - it's proprietary to IE, and it's not valid code.

What is it about Micha's explanation that you do not understand?

body {
background: #RGB url(/path/to/image) no-repeat center
}

No, but I am trying to use valid HTML when I code! 8)

Inline, proprietary code like that is just the wrong way to accomplish most
things, particularly when there is a perfectly valid (and simple) way to do
it otherwise....
