Background Repeat Property
The background-repeat CSS property defines how background images are repeated.
A background image can be repeated along the horizontal axis, the vertical axis, both axes, or not repeated at all. By default, a background-image is repeated both vertically and horizontally.
Syntax:
background-repeat: repeat|repeat-x|repeat-y|no-repeat|initial|inherit;
-
repeat: The background image will be repeated both vertically and horizontally. This is default
-
repeat-x: The background image will be repeated only horizontally
-
repeat-y: The background image will be repeated only vertically.
-
no-repeat: The background-image will not be repeated.
-
initial: Sets this property to its default value.
-
inherit: Inherits this property from its parent element.
Examples: For repeating the image both horizontally and vertically
body {
background-image:url(smiley.gif);
background-repeat:repeat;
}
For repeat the image horizontally
body {
background-image:url(smiley.gif);
background-repeat:repeat-x;
}
