How to create a non-scrolling, centered, oversized image?

oversized image

[HullBreach]

Pardon me if this is the wrong section of the forum, but it appeared to be the most appropriate.

Im building a site using CSS, and I have a large background image that displays behind all three columns of the page. Its a very wide image, and Id like it to center behind all of the other elements at its full size regardless of the browsers resolution. Herein lies the problem: I dont want scrolling, and I still want the image to be centered in such a manner that a low-res veiwer will have a portion of the image that is cut off on both sides of the page.

Does anyone know how to do this, or if its even possible?

This thread will probably be moved to the CSS forum...but here's something for ya...

Add this CSS to your page...

body { background-position: 50% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-attachment: fixed; }

Worked like a charm! Thanks for saving me a few more gray hairs!
