Background Page with watermark didn't work. See clear difference betweeen
Netscape and IE5.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start Netscape
2.Type www.xs4all.nl/~famtie/test1.htm
3.
Actual Results: background page with watermark did in IE5 But it didn't work
in Netscape 6 (M15)
It's clear difference between Netscape and IE5
<body background="roze.gif" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"
bgproperties="fixed">
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It's added this bgproperties = "Fixed" This mean Background with watermark. It
would be beautiful.
This website is designed by Frontpage 97 / 2000.
This should be filed with severity "enhancement", if at all. A bug it is not.
"Watermarks" work under IE5 because MS created that feature specifically for
MSIE, well aware that it wasn't a standard and thus not be visible with any
other browsers. The "invention" may even be patented for all i know. However, it
is W3C that is the formal authority on web standards. Undermining their
importance benefits noone in the long run. Should W3C standardize some watermark
effect one day, i'm sure browser developers would incorporate it. Untill then
you can achieve much the same effect with CSS, if desired. It may even be
quicker :)

fixing URL and changing severity to enhancement.
i agree with dark@c2i.net on this one.
Severity: normal → enhancement
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
I'm glad you agree with me, but you disagree with yourself ;)
URL in the url-field on top here was intially correct: It was the URL in the
reporter's description further down that was wrong. Not that it matters..i think
this is a "WONT".

This can be done with CSS background: fixed. See
http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-CSS1-19990111#background-attachment
The attribute is not in the spec, so this ain't a bug. Marking INVALID.

It is not wrong. It's not standard HTML Element.'Bgportperties' can only read
by IE5 but not by netscape 5. YOu will make two versions of your website for
Netscape and IE5.

Searching for "bgproperties", this issue has been marked INVALID three separate
time already. Marking a DUP of bug 7474, 'BGPROPERTIES="FIXED"'.
The following should work:
> <body background="foo.gif" style="background-attachment: fixed;">
This should also work with IE5, but if it doesn't, you could always use both.
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 7474 ***

Component: HTML Element → Layout
