I'm using an svg image as a background. I'm trying to use CSS3's background-size: 100% 100%;
but it doesn't seem to work, even in browsers which should support it (like Chrome).
If you look at this site you'll see the #special-post article
(to the right/below the food image) with a red banner-looking background. Notice that as you shrink the window down, the height of the background image drops to retain it's proportions, rather then stretching, as I would like.
EDIT: I checked this on FireFox and it works correctly... so this appears to be a webkit issue.
EDIT: I checked this on Safari and it works! So it looks like my problem is specific to Chrome.
(PS: I'm familiar with this alternative solution, using an img
tag, but I'd rather not use it.)
Here's a workaround:
Open your .svg
file, find the <svg>
tag at the beginning and add the following property inside it:
preserveAspectRatio="none"
