I'd like to add a hyperlink to this background image. Should I create a new class within the stylesheet? (When I attempted to call the new class, the image disappeared).
body{
background-image:url('http://thehypebr.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/boundless-sem-branco-2.jpg');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-attachment:fixed;
line-height:20px; font-size:14px;
font-family:"Trebuchet MS";
margin:0
}
EDIT: Now there's whitespace on the top and bottom (created by the new div class?)
You're using a background-image on the body tag. Assigning a hyperlink to it is impossible.
Also, whats stopping you from using it in an img tag? This seems like a semantically valid thing to do:
<a href="#"><img src="http://thehypebr.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/boundless-sem-branco-2.jpg" alt="Image" /></a>
But, if you must use it as a background image, than creating an additional class is the way to go.
You can place a div behind everything on the page, give it a background image, and then add an onclick handler to that div. But you can't hyperlink a background image.
You'd have to do something like:
<body>
<div id='background' onclick='window.location.href="mynewurl"'>
<!-- Rest of page goes here -->
</div>
</body>
Also, add cursor: pointer to the css for the background div so people know it's a link.
