OK, back on this again. I got around to trying this and it didn't work. The
BG images don't show.
Like:
html, body{ position:relative; font:100%/1.2 Verdana, Arial, Helvetica,
sans-serif; background-color:#fff; color:#888; height:100%; padding:0;
margin:0;}
html#home{ background:url("../images/home_bgimage.gif") 50% 0 no-repeat;}
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; id="home">
First of all, in Dreamweaver, 'id' wasn't in the code hints for the html
element. And ignoring that and just doing it anyway produced nothing as I
said.
Any other ideas?
