    Simple HTML help pls

    <HTML>
    <HEAD><TITLE>The XXXXXXXXXXXX</TITLE>
    <META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="">
    <META NAME="description" CONTENT="genealogy, north carolina,georgia,south carolina,florida,alabama">
    <META NAME="author" CONTENT="Rob">
    </HEAD>
    <BODY
    BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF"
    TEXT="#330099"
    LINK="#3300FF"
    VLINK="#990099"
    TOPMARGIN=1
    LEFTMARGIN=1
    MARGINWIDTH=1
    MARGINHEIGHT=1
    BGPROPERTIES="FIXED"
    BACKGROUND="sambg8.jpg">

    </font></pre></CENTER></BODY>
    </HTML>

    At my genealogy website, this page displays perfectly for Internet Explorer...i.e., the background image "stays put" while the researcher scrolls down the page.

    With access by Firefox, the background image follows the researcher as he/she scrolls..repeating itself over and over.

    Anyone have the proper coding that will permit the background image to stay stationary for both IE and Mozilla users?..

    Thanks,
    Rob

    What version of Firefox are you running?

    The page looks fine to me on Firefox 3.0.1

    Thanks Sterling_Aug...

    Running ver. 3.0.1

    Got a PM that said to do the following:

    (in part)

    <META NAME="author" CONTENT="Rob xxx">
    <style>
    body {
    background-color: #FFFFFF;
    background-image: url(sambg8.jpg);
    background-attachment: fixed }
    </style>
    </HEAD>
    <BODY
    BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF"
    TEXT="#330099"
    LINK="#3300FF"
    VLINK="#990099"
    TOPMARGIN=1
    LEFTMARGIN=1
    MARGINWIDTH=1
    MARGINHEIGHT=1
    BGPROPERTIES="FIXED"
    BACKGROUND="sambg8.jpg">

    Seems to work great now with both IE and FireFox...

    Thanks a lot sir, I do appreciate the help..

    Rob
