I've always used the:
bgproperties = "fixed"
code to set the background graphic of a webpage to remain static when scrolling. But i realized that that this code is no good for OmniWeb (my browser of choice). I wonder if there is another code that may be more "universal" and work for this porpouse in OmniWeb.
Any ideas?

thanks,

It's not good news, I'm afraid.

I tried this:

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1"face="Geneva, Verdana, Arial">code:</font><HR><pre><font size=1 face=courier>body { background: url(la7430-<font color = blue>001.</font>jpg) no-repeat fixed }</font>[/code]

And it works in IE but not OmniWeb. You'll probably have to wait until v5 before it fully understands CSS and behaves the way it should.
Computer thez nohhh...

It's definitely an OW issue.

try using the proper css syntax - it still might not work with ow but its better practise.

{ background-image: url(whatever); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-attachment: fixed; background-position: wherever;}
