I am building a jQuery mobile site, and I am trying to insert a scalable image into the background, which would adjust to screen size of the phone. This is my code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Discover Dubrovnik</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="jquery.mobile-1.0a4.1.min.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.5.2.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.mobile-1.0a4.1.min.js"></script>
<style type="text/css">
.ui-page {
background: transparent url(image.gif);
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div data-role="page" data-theme="b">
<div data-role="header">
<h1>Header tex</h1>
</div><!-- /header -->
<div data-role="content" data-theme="d">
some text
</div><!-- /content -->
<div data-role="footer">
<h1>Neki izbornik</h1>
</div>
</div><!-- /page -->
When the window is in fullscreen, I get background image, but when I resize it/make it smaller (like the screen in phones), the image isn't resized and it is not centered, so I can only see one part of it...

I found this answer works for me
<style type="text/css">
#background{
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100% !important;
height: 100% !important;
background: url(mobile-images/limo-service.jpg) no-repeat center center fixed !important;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
z-index: -1;
}
.ui-page{
background:none;
}
</style>
also add id="background" to the div for your content section
<div data-role="page" data-theme="a">
<div data-role="main" class="ui-content" id="background">
</div>
</div>
Try this. This should work:
<div data-role="page" id="page" style="background-image: url('#URL'); background-attachment: fixed; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: 100% 100%;"
data-theme="a">
For jquery mobile and phonegap this is the correct code:
<style type="text/css">
body {
background: url(imgage.gif);
background-repeat:repeat-y;
background-position:center center;
background-attachment:scroll;
background-size:100% 100%;
}
.ui-page {
background: transparent;
}
.ui-content{
background: transparent;
}
</style>
my experience:
in some situations the background image url have to be put separately for all page parts - I use:
var bgImageUrl = "url(../thirdparty/icons/android-circuit.jpg)";
...
$('#indexa').live('pageinit', function() {
$("#indexa").css("background-image",bgImageUrl);
$("#contenta").css("background-image",bgImageUrl);
$("#footera").css("background-image",bgImageUrl);
...
}
where "indexa" is the id of the whole page, and the "contenta" and "footera" are id-s of the content and footer respectively.
This works for sure in PhoneGap + jQuery Mobile
Override ui-page class in your css:
.ui-page {
background: url("image.gif");
background-repeat: repeat;
}
I think your answer will be background-size:cover.
.ui-page
{
background: #000;
background-image:url(image.gif);
background-size:cover;
}
Here is how I scale <img> tags. If you want to make it a background image you can set it's position to absolute, place the image where you want (using the: top, bottom, left, right declarations), and set it's z-index below the rest of your page.
//simple example
.your_class_name {
width: 100%;
height:auto;
}
//background image example
.your_background_class_name {
width: 100%;
height:auto;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
z-index: -1;
position: absolute;
}
To implement this you would simply place an image tag inside the data-role="page" element of your page(s) that has the ".your_background_class_name" class and the src attribute set to the image you want to have as your background.
I hope this helps.
Just add !important tag to all css elements in Paolo's answer! Works fine for me JQM+phonegap
EXAMPLE:
body {
background: url(../images/background.jpg) !important;
None of the above worked for me using JQM 1.2.0
This did work for me:
.ui-page.ui-body-c {
background: url(bg.png);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:center center;
background-size:cover;
}
just simple replace your class with this.
.ui-page
{
background: transparent url(images/EarthIcon.jpg) no-repeat center center;
}
I have same issue and i solved it.
With JQM 1.4.2 this one works for me (Change theme to the used one):
.ui-page-theme-b, .ui-page-theme-b .ui-panel-wrapper {
background: transparent url(../img/xxx) !important;
background-repeat:repeat !important;
}
