    Hi

    I'm adding a background image to my body tag, but I want to align it to the center of the page. Is this possible?


    body {
    margin:0px;
    background:#ffffff;
    text-align:center;
    padding:0;
    background-image:url("images/body_bg.jpg");
    background-attachment: center; /* ?? */
    }

    help.
