Cumulus Generated Weather Page

Post by krmidas »

I love how on the page that uses the Cumulus template http://krmidas.home.comcast.net/~krmida ... /index.htm, the background image is stationary, and the text and graphics "float" over the background. I assume this is done with the use of CSS.

I'd love to add this functionality to my page http://krmidas.home.comcast.net/~krmidas/yyyweather.htm, but don't know how. Can anyone assist?

You just need to add "background-attachment: fixed;" to your body style, like so:

Code: Select all

<body style="background-image: url(http://krmidas.home.comcast.net/~krmidas/Clouds.jpg); background-attachment: fixed;">
But you should also consider extracting all those inline styles from your page and putting them into a style sheet (CSS file).
