The BACKGROUND Attribute
In HTML the BODY element can take a BACKGROUND attribute.
- Allows you to specify an image file to be used as a background
(a bit like a watermark) to the indicated BODY.
- In most browsers, this image is used to tile the full background of
the document viewing area.
The following example:
<BODY BACKGROUND="image.gif">
<H1> Bla Bla Bla </H1>
<P> And still more text....
</BODY>
tiles the window background with the designated GIF image
"image.gif".
The above is how the sample picture below would look if selected
as the background image.
