Background image moves on window resize

    I’m using a child theme with thematic. The background image moves when the browser window is resized; the wrapper stays fixed to left edge of window (once size is smaller than window). Image is fixed in IE, moves in other browsers.

    Many hours, no solution yet. Hope you can help.

  • Positition:fixed; in css?

    You should just use loreum ispum… BTW for filler text

    Position:fixed — just tried that, then the background moves all over the place. Now it moves in relation to the wrapper only when the window is narrower than the wrapper. Thanks though.

    body {style.css (line 37)
background:#01245C url(Images/newbackground.jpg) no-repeat scroll 50% 0;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
min-width:940px;
text-align:center;
}

    SOLVED finally: added display: table;, and now it stays put.

    thanks to a kind helper at themeshaper forums.

    Display : table wont work in IE 8. Also Microsoft is planning to discard this display type or i guess discarded.

    I have a solution for this problem. You can go through my post on this.

    Quick hint: load the same image as background for the body(100% width) as well as the header div (with a fixed width say 1000px)

    Why depend too much on css properties that can be browser dependent. ??
