The background property is a shorthand for the more specific background-related properties. Some examples of background declarations follow:

BODY { background: white url(logo.gif) }
BLOCKQUOTE { background: #7fffd4 }
P { background: url(logo.gif) #f0f8ff fixed }
TABLE { background: #0c0 url(logo.jpg) no-repeat bottom right }

A value not specified will receive its initial value. For example, in the first three rules above, the background-position property will be set to 0% 0%.
