I am attempting to have a floating image below page content, but above
<body>
When I started, I used negative z-index for my floating image, all worked
in opera, not mozilla. Google indicated must set <body>
position:relative;top:0;left:0;float:left; but then that broke opera..
image didn't come more than 1/3 of page, regardless of style applied.
Is there a way to make opera not see mozilla style (or other way round)??
... and no, not a "background-image", it must be above the background
no url available... yet.
The site is not hosted, but in design stages...
Am testing on ie6, Mozilla 1.8a4, opera7.53
just realized, mentioning a floating image here has a different meaning.
what I meant was an image (actually different instances of image) randomly
"positioned" behind the text etc, but to work in mozilla, to make neg
z-index viewable, it requires the above code.
The Why
The following is replicated between 5 and 15 times randomly for each page
position top and left generated randomly
the choice of image/s is generated randomly (images are faint,
non-intrusive)
<img style="position:absolute; left:$left; top:$top; z-index:-$index;"
src="templates/images/$img" alt="decoration" width="$size" height="$size">
this results in no 2 page views having the "exact" same appearance... part
of the designers "vision" (not me)
with the mozilla fix, all opera images are stuck in the top 1/3 of screen.
without the mozilla fix, mozilla doesn't display any instances of those
images.
will look into that already supplied, just posted this to, hopefully clarify
why...
