[Pro] Variable Size Page Background Photo

(See example site) How did they get the background photo to resize as the browser window is resized, without tiling, and without empty space on the edges?

This is what I have been seeking and not finding…

Thanks for any suggestions…

Are you missing the Full Background Proportional Action perhaps?

I think that’s what you are looking for.

Thanks, Peter

I’m sure that, as they say, was exactly where my problem was!

I think Ernie Simpson helped me out by using just CSS to do the same. I have my image as a background image in a div called “main-wrapper” and then a style called
#main-wrapper with the following attributes
name=background-attachment value=fixed
name=-webkit-background-size value=cover
name=-moz-background-size value=cover
name=-o-background-size value=cover
name= background-size value=cover

Thanks, Marcel…

Here I betray my ignorance of nearly everything code, starting with “what’s a div?”. (Hence my reliance on Freeway - I’m happy to let others know it all for me, although it’s an annoying handicap at times. Not annoying enough though to make learning it move to the top of my priority list!)

Cheers.
