background

Judging by what you said, it certainly sounded like you don't!

Aren't you going to even try to answer?

The huge file for background is stupid, unless really good graphicy.
It doesn't matte rhow much text you have on your page, but when you scroll down it laggs.
Are you talking about a page, with one picture in the background and the text and other shit is able to scroll?

What do you mean by "transparent sites"?

**CFE** · 08-01-2005, 09:12 PM

Well atleast do the respect of answering the question, I answered yours.

Try the code I gave ya, and then tell me if it lags or not.
because I'm on a big project by AOk Trial Administration, and I got no time to test things for you guys right now.

You're not very good at this are you?

I'm tired of repeating myself, so if you're interested in carrying on please re-read my 3 previous posts (try reading it out loud, that might help), just have a good think this time before answering.

hmm... why don't u use design software like, adobe photoshop / macromedia freehand or etc to make ur transparent background?
it's more easy than u use that all from the post...
sorry if i wrong lol....

I'm afraid I think you're besides the point : by definition the background (of something) is what is behind everything else (in that thing). Using a transparent background is a bit pointless coz all you'll see through it is the "back" of your browser... You might as well not use a background at all, it'd have exactly the same effect.

I'm still waiting to hear what the wannabe admin means by a "transparent website", so don't worry if you're confused, so am I! :roll:

I can Describe it.

A background image. Just one image.
ANd says and never moves.
But when you scroll down, everything on top of the image such as text and other images, will be able to scroll up and down.
Not the background.
That stay's the same no matter what.
Thats what I think your trying to get at.

You can also try the code I gave you above.

So in actual fact what you were on about has nothing to do with transparency : you were referring to a "fixed" or "non-scrolling" background... :roll:

Ok, so let's start again :

:arrow: The code you posted does not do this. To do this in more than just IE, add "background-attachment: fixed;" to your body element's CSS.

:arrow: Using this technique should not noticeably make your website "laggy", unless you use a small and complicated semi-transparent background image : The one I described on the 1st page of this thread for example.

:arrow: Server speed has nothing to do with how jerky your scrolling down a page is.

Isn't it easier to communicate using the appropriate words? :)

Really you can really testify that server speed hasnothing to do with scrolling?
You can really testify that www.Aoktrial.azn.nu does not lagg when you scroll. The server is slow something and the lag gets worse.
Anyway That part is closed, I know a script for transparent pictures so you can see what the picture is on top of something.
Are you asking for that?
because I don't know a code that will make everything trasnparent to see the background thats just a waste of time.
I have code to make the pictures transparent,

Put this above <body> Tag.

Code:

<script language="JavaScript1.2">
//Gradual-Highlight image script- By Dynamic Drive
//For full source code and more DHTML scripts, visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com
//This credit MUST stay intact for use
function high(which2){
theobject=which2
highlighting=setInterval("highlightit(theobject)",50)
}
function low(which2){
clearInterval(highlighting)
if (which2.style.MozOpacity)
which2.style.MozOpacity=0.3
else if (which2.filters)
which2.filters.alpha.opacity=30
}
function highlightit(cur2){
if (cur2.style.MozOpacity<1)
cur2.style.MozOpacity=parseFloat(cur2.style.MozOpacity)+0.1
else if (cur2.filters&&cur2.filters.alpha.opacity<100)
cur2.filters.alpha.opacity+=10
else if (window.highlighting)
clearInterval(highlighting)
}
</script>

Add this to your image tag such as <img src=img.gif (code)>

Code:

style="filter:alpha(opacity=55);-moz-opacity:1.5" onMouseover="high(this)" onMouseout="low(this)"
