How can I set fixed position Background image in jquery mobile for iPhone app using Phonegap
I am doing a iPhone app using Phonegap & also using jquery mobile. I want to set background image for data-role=page div. In this height of page is equal to screen & hence background is set to size of screen. But the page content length is much greater than screen & hence gray background is seen after image completes. My question is whether there is a way so that we can keep the background image fixed & scroll or move only content of page & not background image. Just to mention I have tried full size background jquery pluggin. Its working on Android but not on iOS.
Can anyone please help? Thanks in advance.

Ok, so what I did instead was to create a fixed element within the body element of the page. So it would look like
<body>
<div id="background"></div>
...
</body>
And for the CSS I stated the following:
#background {
position:fixed;
top:0;
left:0;
width:100%;
height:100%;
background: url(images/bg-retina.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat fixed !important;
background-size:contain;
}
And this did the trick for me. Hopefully it helps (someone out there :P)
