Controlling background images with CSS
- How to set a background image that does not repeat.
- How to set a background image that will repeat vertically only.
- How to set a background image that repeats horizonally only.
- Neat background gradient effects with CSS.
In your linked style sheet, include the following code:
BODY {BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(your_bg_gradient.jpg); BACKGROUND-REPEAT: repeat-x; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #hex_of_lower_edge}
The background-repeat property allows you to set if and how the background image will repeat. If the background does not repeat enough to cover the page area, the background-color will show through. If you're going for a gradient effect, make sure you set the background-color to be the same color as the trailing edge of your image.
Background-repeat can also be used with div tags. For example,
<div style="background-image: url('background.jpg'); background-repeat: repeat-y; background-color: white;"> Your content here. </div>
Possible BACKGROUND-REPEAT Values
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| repeat | The background image will be repeated vertically and horizontally |
| repeat-x | The background image will be repeated horizontally |
| repeat-y | The background image will be repeated vertically |
| no-repeat | The background-image will be displayed only once |
