This tutorial shows you how to work with the various CSS background properties. Using CSS, you can specify things like:
- The background colour to use for a Web page, table, paragraph, etc
- The background image for a Web page, table, paragraph, etc
- Whether the background image scrolls with the page, or is fixed on the screen
- Whether the background image repeats
- The position of the background image

The section at the end of the tutorial will help you avoid some of the common pitfalls associated with backgrounds.
