BTW, IE5.5/Win and below do not support fixed background images; the image
is placed at the middle of the page instead of the viewport (browser
window.)
NN4, which doesn't support fixed background images either, makes a complete
mess with that bit of CSS. I don't know what the heck is going on, but every
table cell uses the image as the background and apparently any margins have
a black background color. I recommend hiding this CSS from NN4, which is as
simple as using an ID selector instead of a class (NN4 is very buggy with
its support of ID selectors.)
I have modified the CSS to include a background color for BODY, and changed
the class to an ID.
<style type="text/css">
body {background: white url(images/graypixel.jpg)}
div#body {background: url(images/raisorfaded5.jpg) no-repeat fixed center
center}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="body">
--page content--
</div>
</body>
