Question:

How do i get a tiled background on my website like the one at...?

I have seen several websites where the logo wraps around the main body of text in the middle of the screen & the logo is repeated in a ‘Tile’ fashion. A good example of what i mean is at this site (http://worldinternetsummit.com/uk/2008/).

In the case of this website, it’s the blue surrounds with the logo tiled in the background. How do you do this on a website? Is there any particular software package I can use to create a similar professional look myself (e.g.- FrontPage, Dreamweaver or other software)?

Thanks in advance for any help.

  1. If you have some understanding about HTML code of the web page then you can implement it easily. just open the page in front page or dream-weaver or just in notepad. you will find a body tag there. i.e.

    <body>. Replace this with

    <body style="BACKGROUND: url(../../images/yourimage.gif)">

    where "url" is the path/location of the image. Hope it will work.

    Regards,


  2. Notepad++ still works better for me than any other webdesign app like Dreamweaver :)

    In your stylesheet, use this:

    body

    {

    background: url(image/file.gif)

    }

    That will repeat the background for your whole page

    If you only want it horizontally, append repeat-x,

    if only vertically, append repeat-y,

    if you don't want to repeat it, append no-repeat

    Or, inject it directly into the body tag:

    <body style="background:url(image/file.gif)">
