have also created the custom.css file as instructed and uploaded into the same location as index.html

this is the css file created

body {
margin: 0 auto;
min-height: 100%;
max-width:960px;
width:90%;
color:#fff;
background: url(backstretch/bgwebfitz.jpg) repeat-y;
}

now the image is not remaining static or resizing to fit the screen, it is now too big for the ipad

Please let me know if there is no more help on this

Sorry Declan I will look at this tonight when i get home again. I am sure its just some minor coding changes to correct.

I am using the instructions on A Growers Life site for the background image with the html box at the top left corner of the VSD page with the code:

<script src="backstretch/jquery.js"></script>
<script src="backstretch/jquery.backstretch.js"></script>
<script>
$.backstretch([
"backstretch/bgwebfitz.jpg"
], {

});
</script>

this work fine on the laptop. Is there maybe some code to be added that will make the background image resize for Ipad correctly.
Thanks
Declan

I would fix these errors first.

You have some stray html code.
Extra body and head tags that look like they were placed in there along with your WOW slider code.

Hello again, I have corrected the html issues outlined. The background effect i am using is on the A Growers Life site at:
http://progrower.coffeecup.com/jqueryba … tatic.html
I am still having the same problem that the background resizes correctly on the laptop etc. but on the ipad it does not resize to fill the background with a strip down the right hand side causing the image to be off center to the left. I thought it must be because I maybe missed some of the html corrections outlined by yourselves. Just to make sure I loaded your own page http://progrower.coffeecup.com/jqueryba … tatic.html onto the ipad and the same problem is on there as well. Please let me know if there is a way to fix this.
Thanks, Declan

I'm not near an Ipad. Does this page work correctly?
