Displaying an Image Background within an HTML Web Page

You can display an image backgound within an HTML web page.

The BODY tag follows the HEAD tag within an HTML web page document.

The contents of your web page is displayed between the BODY tags. This includes everything displayed when viewed through a web browser.

You can display an image background within an HTML web page by adding the BACKGROUND attribute to your HTML BODY tag.

However, please ensure you select your image very carefully and ensure your text can be easily viewed.

However, please keep in mind, the best background color for a professional web page is always white.

Copy and paste the HTML BACKGROUND attribute into the BODY tag of your HTML code.

<body BACKGROUND="yourimage.gif">

Edit the text indicated in red to the image you would like to display as your web page background.

Although you can display an image background within your HTML web page, it is always best to display black text on a white background.
