Steps to load a background image in a webpage

To set a background image for a webpage, you can use CSS. You need to use the background-image property in your CSS file or in a <style> tag.

Steps:

  1. Choose or prepare an image for the background.
  2. Use CSS to link the background image to the <body> or any other HTML element.

Example code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang=”en”>
<head>
<meta charset=”UTF-8″>
<title>Background Image</title>
<style>
body {
background-image: url(‘background.jpg’);
background-size: cover; /* Ensures image covers entire screen */
background-position: center; /* Centers the image */
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Welcome to My Page</h1>
</body>
</html>

In the example above, background.jpg is the image file used as the background.
