How to set a default background image for entire application?

Thanks

Walter,
You can add the following code to your own custom.css file (create one if you don't have one already). You can override or - as in this example - add properties to the nt-body class which is the one being used by the templates. By doing it this way you can update NT in the future while preserving your changes/additions.

Code: [Select]

.nt-body {
background-image: url("/images/yourbackground.png");
}

Hi Peter,

Thanks for you answer.

I want my customer could change de background-image. I have a customer setup table that allow my customers upload the image in order to use it as background-image. So, when it access the page, passing your ID i want to set the background-image with the image that my customer has uploaded.

I'm already getting other information and using them correctly in PageHeader XHTML, but could not change the background image.

Thanks,

Save the file the user uploads into /images/yourbackground.png

Alternativly write JavaScript to change the image. Something like
 $("body").css("background-image","whatever.png");

which can be added to a page (maybe the header) as
p_web.Script(' $("body").css("background-image","whatever.png");')

Cheers
Bruce

Hi Bruce,

I tried lots of embed point and no one works.
So i tried this and its working fine.

</style>

Got the background working but decided for now to turn it off.
Have tried everything I can think of including deleteing the custom.css file and it won't go away.
Deleted the image itself and that worked but ....

probably you just need to re-run Gzipall.bat

you can use Firebug to inspect where the CSS is comming from. I'm expecting from all.css, which is created by Gzipall.bat.
