how to stretch background image of any html element?

7 New Member
I want to stretch the background image of <td> according to the width of td. The width of td can vary becouse of the content inside the td tag. so the background image should be stretched accordingly.

Hi, I am trying to change the background of table TD's. The problem is that I have no access to the HTML code. SO I am trying to alter this using Javascript/DOM in an external .js file. I have tried lot's of things and spent hours on this, I thought I might give it a try here. One of the TD's uses HTML to set the background, the other one uses CSS styling:

I want to stretch the image so that it fills the entire cell width and height. How do I do that? <TD background="bg.gif" width="100%" height="100%" style="background-repeat: no-repeat;"> So far I have done that but it doesn't seem to work. I think the height and width get applied to the cell instead of the image. Is there a way around this?

I'm missing something regarding positioning background images. It's probably obvious, and I hope someone here will note it for me. I'm trying to do something like the complex spiral thing, only much simpler. According to the O'Reilly CSS definitive guide book, it should work, but it isn't. On http://www.xmission.com/~wake/backgroundtest.html I have a background image showing through, but not showing up in the header areas. It is my...

I have need for a collection of all elements/objects in an HTML document that have any kind of an attribute (HTML or CSS) that is making use of a URL to display an image. document.images only seems to reference image tags. The collection needs to include background images, input type = image, image maps, css assigned background, etc. Honestly, I am probably not aware of all the possibilities...

I have searched for "vertical stretch, align, etc." and have tried (and failed) with all of the solutions to stretch the "#nav vertical" div so that it streches to the height of the page. As you can see I simply set it to "height:800px;" - which looks bad on really short pages (http://www.coloradopedia.com/~newports/HoursOfOperation.html ) or really long ones (http://www.coloradopedia.com/~newports/BoardOfDirectors.html Please help - on...

If in my CSS I set the "background-color" property on the "body" element, it only covers the background of the elements defined in the body, up to the current width and height of the page. However, if the current component set has a resulting small height, this leaves most of the page with the original background color (white). However, if I set the property on the "html" element instead, it does color the entire visible page, beyond the...

Hi all, I posted an earlier question to the microsoft.public.inetserver.asp.general newsgroup asking how to set the background of a client-side table cell to a gradient, and I received this answer: How do I stretch the static image? The Style property builder for a table cell lets me specify the background image location, tiling, scrolling, and position. But I can't find any obvious way to tell it to stretch the image

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
