How to give full-stretchded background for each part of the page

HTML & CSS
1

I want to create a front page with background stretched to full page width for each section like on this web site: Eshbeata.com

Anyone has an idea how to do something like this.

The page I want to create is part of CMS system (wordpress). Each section needs to has dynamic height, but that is not important. I want to have the background clearly separated for different section.

Thank you,

Hi,

If you are talking about this image then its not stretched at all. It’s just a very large image of 2500px centred on the screen. On my 27" imac at full screen you get blank gaps at the side as the imac is wider than 2500px.

You can stretch images for modern browsers just by using background-size:cover and the image will be stretched to fit the container while maintaining the correct aspect ratio.

ketting00,

You asked for ideas.
I don’t do WordPress, so you will have to decide if this is useful or not.
