I wrote a simple webpage, and maybe I did something wrong.  But In Internet
Explorer the background on this page is fixed.  It appears firefox does not
support this html command.  With a fixed background, the background image does
not move, but the text scrolls over it.  Here, the whole page including the
background still scrolls.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to www.sa.rochester.edu/afterhours
2. scroll up and down
3.

Actual Results:  
the background is not fixed

Expected Results:  
the background image should have stayed in place while the text scrolled over
it.  Similar to movie credits.

Maybe i wrote the code wrong, but it works in IE.  Please notify me either way.
Thank you,
Greg Hart
BGPROPERTIES is a Microsoft invention that we will not support.  Use CSS to fix
the background.
