Re: [css-d] iOS Safari and multiple fixed backgrounds
Hey Tom, Did you see this support chart: http://www.quirksmode.org/css/backgrounds-borders/mobile.html There appear to be some hacks, with one from 2012 referenced here: http://stackoverflow.com/a/13337504/1108292 And what could potentially be a starting point for a polyfill: http://stackoverflow.com/a/14115437/1108292 And, finally, this post tries to explain why position:fixed is unreliable in iOS (and Android): http://webreflection.blogspot.co.nz/2009/09/css-position-fixed-solution.html Hope it helps.

The CSS rule I am using is: .myDiv{background: fixed url(../img/careers/careers-header-bg.jpg) 50% 0 no-repeat;} Some Googling produced nothing that will help. Anyone have any ideas? Anyone know if there's a trick to this?

I did see those. The last link you posted above talks about position:fixed in terms of, for example, a fixed navbar at the top of a page. What I'm after is a fixed background image applied to a div. Now technically, that may be the same thing and in my limited knowledge I just don't realize it, but I would think these are two different things. In the end, I'll go with what I thought and that's 'no, you can't do that', and just code my MQs accordingly. Georg, I remember reading something a while back as well, but the way things change in this biz, you never know if someone figured out a way around it.
