Summary

The background CSS property is a shorthand for setting the individual background values in a single place in the style sheet. background can be used to set the values for one or more of: background-clip, background-color, background-image, background-origin, background-position, background-repeat, background-size, and background-attachment.

The background CSS shorthand property assigns explicit given values and sets missing properties to their initial values.

Initial valueas each of the properties of the shorthand:
Applies toall elements. It also applies to ::first-letter and ::first-line.
Inheritedno
Percentagesas each of the properties of the shorthand:
  • background-position: refer to the size of the background positioning area minus size of background image; size refers to the width for horizontal offsets and to the height for vertical offsets
  • background-size: relative to the background positioning area
Mediavisual
Computed valueas each of the properties of the shorthand:
  • background-image: as specified, but with URIs made absolute
  • background-position: a list, each item consisting of two keywords representing the origin and two offsets from that origin, each given as an absolute length (if given a <length>), otherwise as a percentage
  • background-size: as specified, but with relative lengths converted into absolute lengths
  • background-repeat: a list, each item consisting of two keywords, one per dimension
  • background-origin: as specified
  • background-clip: as specified
  • background-attachment: as specified
  • background-color: If the value is translucent, the computed value will be the rgba() corresponding one. If it isn't, it will be the rgb() corresponding one. The transparent keyword maps to rgba(0,0,0,0).

Syntax

/* Using a <background-color> */
background: green;

/* Using a <bg-image> and <repeat-style> */
background: url("test.jpg") repeat-y;

/* Using a <box> and <background-color> */
background: border-box red;

/* A single image, centered and scaled */
background: no-repeat center/80% url("../img/image.png");
Note: The background-color can only be defined on the last background, as there is only one background color for the whole element.

Values

One or more of the following, in any order:

<attachment>
See background-attachment
<box>
See background-clip
<background-color>
See background-color
<bg-image>
See background-image
<position>
See background-position
<repeat-style>
See background-repeat
<bg-size>
See background-size. This property must be specified after <position>, separated with the '/' character.
