Hi,
working on a very small site which loads in one go, so there is a div which holds all the background images, and on top of that (i.e. higher z-index) there is a content div which holds everything. I can switch backgrounds easily based on what content is selected.
Unfortunately, I noticed if you launch in a small window so that scrollbars appear, if you scroll there is no background image in the 'revealed' portions of the page. :-(
Page structure:
<body>
<div id="bg">
<div class="bgone"></div>
<div class="bgtwo"></div>
</div>
<div id="container">
<!-- content panels here -->
</div>
</body>
css:
#bg
{
margin: 0px;
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
width:100%;
height: 1024px;
z-index:1;
}
.bgone
{
margin: 0px;
position: absolute;
width:100%;
height: 1024px;
background-image:url(../images/one.jpg);
background-position:top;
background-repeat:repeat-x;
z-index:2;
}
.bgtwo
{
margin: 0px;
position: absolute;
width:100%;
height: 1024px;
background-image:url(../images/two.jpg);
background-position:top;
background-repeat:repeat-x;
z-index:3;
}
#container
{
position:relative;
width:900px;
padding:0px;
margin:0px auto;
height:600px;
z-index:10;
}
