Name
backgroundPosition — NN n/a IE 4 DOM n/a
Synopsis
Read/Write
Top and left location of the background image relative to the element’s content region (plus padding). This property is not properly connected in Internet Explorer 4 for the Macintosh.
Example
document.all.div3.style.backgroundPosition = "20 50"
Value
You should be able to specify one or two percentages, which are the
percentages of the block-level element’s box width and height
(respectively) at which point the image (or repeated images) begins.
Setting percentage values, however, does not always work in IE 4 for
Windows (and it doesn’t work at all on the Mac), even though
they are returned as the default value units. You are safest with
pixel values (as space-delimited values inside one string). None of
the allowed constants except top and
left are recognized.
