changing backgrounds in html? by marissa on 08-03-2005 at 03:25 AM
is there a code or something that'll change your background on something in HTML nothing else, but i was just wondering. Probably not, since html is just basic stuff...but you never know. i just want to know so i can have an alternating background on my myspace (NOT msn's my spaces >.<)
RE: changing backgrounds in html? by ShawnZ on 08-03-2005 at 03:28 AM
two ways, im sure both don't work in your case.
<style>body{background:url("http://new/background.png");}</style>
orrrrrr
<script>document.body[0].background = "http://new/background.png"</script>

oh crap, maybe i worded that wrong..
like i want...say, a blue background *the person refreshes* a red background *refresh* a green background...etc. or would those codes still work? i dont know.

Dont know the code but im pretty sure javascript does the trick....

You need a javascript code that would randomly pick the background color on page load.
