Default scrolling text on a static background image - 07-14-2004 , 05:08 PM






Hi!

In Dreamweaver MX 2004--Using the Design mode-- can anyone could walk me
through how to add text that scrolls when it's long enough in the browser.
There is a background graphic that I'd like to stay static. So the background
image stays in place while html text on top of the background image is set to
scroll.

please help!

No you can't do it you need Code View...
Fill in the ___.gif with the image you want to be in the background. (it
dosn't have to be a gif image)
Then drop the code inbetween <Title> and </Head>

<STYLE type="text/css">
HTML {background:url( ___________.gif ) center fixed no-repeat;}
</STYLE>

Your all set save it and your image should be in the background!

Flash
(Note: This works with internet explorer on windows... I do not know if it
works on ie mac or other browsers)

As for getting the image flush top / left, you need to add margin settings:

CSS:

body {
padding: 0;
margin: 0 -10px 0 -10px;
/*/*/margin: 0 0 0 0; /* */
background-color: White;
}
