Stretch background image css?

People also ask

How do I stretch a background image in CSS?

You can use the CSS background-size: cover; to stretch and scale an image in the background with CSS only. This scales the image as large as possible in such a way that the background area is completely covered by the background image, while preserving its intrinsic aspect ratio.

How do I stretch a background image in HTML?

You can use background-size: cover to scale the image, while preserving its intrinsic aspect ratio (if any), to the smallest size such that both its width and its height can completely cover the background positioning area. Using this option will ensure that the image doesn't get stretched out of proportion.


.style1 {
  background: url(images/bg.jpg) no-repeat center center fixed;
  -webkit-background-size: cover;
  -moz-background-size: cover;
  -o-background-size: cover;
  background-size: cover;
}

Works in:

  • Safari 3+
  • Chrome Whatever+
  • IE 9+
  • Opera 10+ (Opera 9.5 supported background-size but not the keywords)
  • Firefox 3.6+ (Firefox 4 supports non-vendor prefixed version)

In addition you can try this for an IE solution

filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='.myBackground.jpg', sizingMethod='scale');
-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='myBackground.jpg', sizingMethod='scale')";
zoom: 1;

CSS3: http://webdesign.about.com/od/styleproperties/p/blspbgsize.htm

.style1 {
  ...
  background-size: 100%;
}

You can specify just width or height with:

background-size: 100% 50%;

Which will stretch it 100% of the width and 50% of the height.

You can't stretch a background image (until CSS 3).

You would have to use absolute positioning, so that you can put an image tag inside the cell and stretch it to cover the entire cell, then put the content on top of the image.

table {
  width: 230px;
}

.style1 {
  text-align: center;
  height: 35px;
}

.bg {
  position: relative;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
}

.bg img {
  display: block;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
}

.bg .linkcontainer {
  position: absolute;
  left: 0;
  top: 0;
  overflow: hidden;
  width: 100%;
}
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="10">
  <tr>
    <td class="style1">
      <div class="bg">
        <img src="http://placekitten.com/20/20" alt="" />
        <div class="linkcontainer">
          <a class="link" href="#">
            <span>Answer</span>
          </a>
        </div>
      </div>
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>

I think what you are looking for is

.style1 {
  background: url('http://localhost/msite/images/12.PNG');
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  background-position: center;
  -webkit-background-size: contain;
  -moz-background-size: contain;
  -o-background-size: contain;
  background-size: contain;
}
