It's not. I'm saying that all it's doing is pushing around the same html and css you can push around yourself.

Which brings us to the HOW... simplest way would be to use the css background property.

You can either use dreamweaver's built-in css editor, or just put in the head

<style type="text/css">
body (or whatever element you want the background to be on)
{
       background-color: #ffffff;
     background-attachment: fixed;
     background-image: url(whatever.jpg);
     background-repeat: no-repeat;
     background-position: center center;
}
</style>

or the shorthand version
<style type="text/css">
body {background: #fff url(whatever.jpg) fixed no-repeat center center;}
</style>]]> 10/07/04, 281 45 2004 2004:%i:1097156751 09:45:51 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/web_design_software/backgrounds_in_dreamweave_mx_pages/#p1412 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/web_design_software/backgrounds_in_dreamweave_mx_pages/#p1413
