want to change background image size

7 New Member
Hello,

I have an image as a background in the style sheet. The image is big and I would like to make it smaller. Can I do that in the style sheet?
I really don't have room to crop.

This is the code:
body
{
background-image:url('imag es/RecRm 1.jpg');
background-attachment:fixe d;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:center left;
background-color:#000;
font-family:papyrus;
font-size:14px;
}

The site loads slow due to big images.
The site: thejanedeans.co m

Any tips/help?

thanks
can

CSS can display it smaller but cannot size it smaller. You need to do that with your image editing software.

I have this links list with background images set on them which changes when they roll over. The <td> is set valign="middle" however as soon as you apply the rollover to the link, the text jumps to the top of the <td> instead of staying middle. I can not put padding on the top as some links are 2 lines and some are 1 line.

Hi, I have a table in which I would like to change the background image onMouseOver. I implemented it with CSS but IE doesn't support hovers on tables, so I'd need to go via JS for IE. Can anyone give me a hint how to do this? So far it looks like: <tr> <td class="frontbar"> <a href="#"><img src="images/dot.gif" width="10"

CSS newbie again. I have a problem trying to get coffee mug images within anchor tags to center with my link text for a vertical list menu. If I use the horizontal/vertical properties of "background" or "background-image", the positioning only works with specifying pixels.

Hi. I am relatively new to CSS and HTML but have a basic understanding of most things. One of my backgrounds is not positioning correctly in IE 7 or AOL. The background behind the content (small chocolate area) is positioning slightly down the page instead of at the top. I have used the same techniques in the navigation and it positions fine. Its fine in Fire Fox Opera & Safari. I have run my HTML & CSS through W3c and all is clean. ...

I'm having a problem with IE rendering correctly. I'm experimenting with using all div's in my pages now, and I'm not very familiar with the quirks of IE. I have created a sample page, and I'm really confused as to what is going on in IE. FF renders the page exactly as I expect. IE renders the page with everything in the correct location, but it seems to double the background image for a sub-div section that is moved up using a negative...
