Background images

[dxlclothing]

hi looking for a bit of help,

 

im looking for something like this http://www.karmaloop.com/

 

as you can see the main window has a image surronding the box,

 

 

can this be done in oscommerce

That looks as though the image is outside of the web page itself, which is of a fixed width. You can do this with my Fixed Width Site With CSS contribution - link below my name.

It can be done, but you will need to play around with your image to get the desired effect.

As already mentioned, if you use the style sheet just add the following:

 

background-image:url(images/backgroundimage.gif);

 

This will add the image to your background, however it will scale according to the height of the page.

I am not sure how you would go about making the image behave as it does on your reference site, perhaps you could have a look at the sites source code and see if you can see any clues how they did it, tables?

 

hope this helps.
