+geo50chevy Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 I would like to be able to have a specific photograph in back of the information describing my caches. I do not see any place on the form of how to do it. Many others have great background pictures and the information appears to scroll right over the background picture. Thanks, geo50chevy Link to comment
+Doc-Dean Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Make sure the "page contains html" button is checked. Here's the code you need: <body BACKGROUND="http://whatever you want" BGPROPERTIES="FIXED"> The BGPROPERTIES="FIXED" is optional. I recommend you try it with and with out it inserted and see which you like better. Link to comment

There'd be less traffic on the internet chasing down a private web site and there'd be no worry about the private site going down or being unavailable when the cache page is loaded. Link to comment
Jeremy Posted March 8, 2004 Share Posted March 8, 2004 It is such a popular feature I may just add it as one of the fields you can enter when you edit your cache page, so the html on the page is correct. Link to comment
