CSS implements responsive full-screen background image

One of the most popular forms of web pages currently is full-screen large images. This article will use the simplest way to achieve this effect. The CSS property background-size is used ,no javascript required.

Core Concept

  • ## Use the background-size attribute to fill the entire viewport

When the css attribute background-size value is cover, the browser will automatically scale the width and height of the background image proportionally until it is greater than or equal to the width and height of the viewport

  • Use media queries to provide smaller-sized background images for mobile devices

  • ## Why should we provide small-sized background images for mobile devices? In the demo , the actual size of the background image we see is 5498px * 3615px, the purpose of using such a large size image is to satisfy most widescreen monitors without blurry display, at the expense of a 1.7MB image size.

But there is no need to use such large images on mobile devices. At the same time, large images will cause slower loading, especially on mobile networks.

It should be noted that providing a small background image for mobile devices is optional for this technical solution.

Practice

    ## HTML
  • ##

    <!doctype html>
    <html>
    <body>
        ...Your content goes here...
    </body>
    </html>
    Copy after login
    Later we will specify a background image for the body tag, so that the background image can fill the entire browser viewport.

  • In fact, this solution can be effective for all block-level containers. If the width and height of your block-level container are dynamic, the background image will automatically expand and contract to fill the entire container.

The style of the CSS body tag is as follows:
  • body {
    /* 加载背景图 */
    background-image: url(images/background-photo.jpg);
    
    /* 背景图垂直、水平均居中 */
    background-position: center center;
    
    /* 背景图不平铺 */
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    
    /* 当内容高度大于图片高度时,背景图像的位置相对于viewport固定 */
    background-attachment: fixed;
    
    /* 让背景图基于容器大小伸缩 */
    background-size: cover;
    
    /* 设置背景颜色,背景图加载过程中会显示背景色 */
    background-color: #**46;
    }
    Copy after login
    The most important one above is:

    background-size: cover;
    Copy after login
In this way, the browser will scale the background image proportionally until the width and height of the background image are no less than the width and height of the container (in the above example, the body tag).

One thing to note here is that if the background image is smaller than the size of the body tag (for example, on a high-resolution monitor, or when the page content is particularly large), the browser will stretch the image. We all know that when an image is stretched, it becomes blurry. Therefore, when choosing a background image, pay special attention to the size. In order to take care of the large screen size, the image size used in the demo is 5498px * 3615px.

At the same time, in order to keep the background image always centered relative to the viewport, we declare:

background-position: center center;
Copy after login

The above rules will position the origin of the background image scaling to the center of the viewport.

The next problem we need to solve is: when the height of the content is greater than the height of the viewport, a scroll bar will appear. We want the background image to remain fixed relative to the viewport, even as the user scrolls.

The solution is:

background-attachment: fixed;
Copy after login

##  (Optional) Use media queries to deal with small screens

In order to cope with the small screen, I used photoshop to scale the background image to 768px * 505px, and then used smush.it Compress image size. This reduces the image size from 1741KB to 114KB, saving 93%. The following is how the media query is written:

@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
  body {
    background-image: url(images/background-photo-mobile-devices.jpg);
  }
}
Copy after login

The above media query will max-width: 767px Set as a breakpoint, which means that when the browser viewport is larger than 767px, a large background image will be used, otherwise a small background image will be used.

The downside of using the above media query is that if you shrink the browser window from 1200px to 640px (or vice versa), you will see a brief flicker as the small or large background image is being load.
