Background


The background attribute specifies a background-image for an HTML page. The value of this attribute is the URL of the image you want to use. If the image is smaller than the browser window, the image will repeat itself until it fills the entire browser window.

<body background="clouds.gif">
<body background="http://www. schoolnet.com/clouds.gif">

The URL can be relative (as in the first line above) or absolute (as in the second line above).
When using a background image, consider the following:

·         Will the background image increase the loading time too much? 

·         Will the background image look good with other images on the page? 

·         Will the background image look good with the text colors on the page? 

·         Will the background image look good when it is repeated on the page? 

·         Will the background image take away the focus from the text?
