From previous experiences, I am aware of the fact that new WordPress themes come with new bugs. However, I was not quite prepared for this last one; my background image appeared fine in Internet Explorer but went missing in FireFox.
Rather than spend the whole day trying to explain the (sometimes) complicated and erroneous suggestions I was given by some so-called experts, I will go straight to the point with a simple solution which can be implemented by making a little addition to your Style-sheet code. Shhh!
Old Code
#bodythingie
{
background: transparent url(“images/body-image.png”) repeat center top;
}
New Code
#bodythingie
{
background: transparent url(“images/body-image.png”) repeat center top; display:table; width:100%;
}
Spot the difference? Yes, you are right! –> display:table; width:100%;
