Guys,

I have a problem and one that I hope someone can solve for me. I have a HTML page that has three frames (columns). I have an image that I split into three. The left section goes in the left frame and the right section goes in the right frame. The central section of the image, I lighten and use as the backgound image for the page in the central frame. It looks like on big image when you load the framed page - which is what I want.

However, when you scroll the central frame, the image also scrolls which distorts the illusion of one big image. Is there any way I can set it up so that the central background stays static even if you scroll the page.

Please help or it's back to the drawing board for me. Mighty :)

Hi Mighty,

It only seems to work in Internet Explorer, but this might help:

Code: 
<body background=&quot;BackgroundImage.gif&quot; bgproperties=&quot;fixed&quot;>

Cheers,
