HTML

Post by **corpse** » Fri Apr 22, 2005 12:59 am

HTML and Netscape. I have a "fixed" background so that the text scrolls but the background stays the same. It works great in Internet Explorer, but in Netscape it does not stay fixed.

The background just scrolls along with everything else. Is this just a Netscape thing?

Also my flash movie does not play in Netscape. It works fine in IE.

I have the flash movie set to "wmode" and transparency and have been told that this can cause problems.

I'm just wondering if there is a way around it or its just Netscape sucking?

Code: Select all

<body style="background-attachment: fixed; background-repeat: no-repeat;" background="xxx.jpg">

Try that and tell me if it works

Thanks, but it needs to be set up first in the Head section doesn't it?

read up on CSS here:

No one uses Netscape btw, you should only need to check for compatibility in IE and Firefox.

Thanks.

One thing I noticed is that one of the examples shows stuff about makeing the links different colors when clicked, not clicked, eetc.

I thought this was done via your browser settings. Dont your browser settings take preference over a web page orders?

IF they aren't default I believe they will. That, or there is an option for the site to over-ride the browser all the time.

no one uses non-default browser settings though
