    Default Fixed background issues.

    Hi,

    I have made a background image for my site and I have it fixed so the images stay to the side of the site even when you scroll down.

    The problem is that when I zoom in to 125% or higher the fixed background image does not zoom with the site and looks out of place.

    Is there a way I can make the background zoom with the rest of the site?

    Thanks,

    Jordin

    Default Re: Fixed background issues.

    The quick answer is no.

    It is a intrinsic problem with fluid layouts in general within html /css, not just Zen Cart. The background image is not scaled with it's container. It makes sense really, the image is displayed at the right resolution. If you start re-sizing images then the resolution goes to pot and they look awful anyway.

    The problem is that most elements of a page can be made fluid. Images really can't. There are some technical solutions out there but none of them are a quick solution.

    There are various workarounds that make the problem a bit less painful. If you post a URL people can have a look and perhaps suggest some ideas....
