I’d like to add a hyperlink to this background image. Should I create a new class within the stylesheet? (When I attempted to call the new class, the image disappeared).

body{
  background-image:url('http://thehypebr.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/boundless-sem-branco-2.jpg');
  background-repeat:no-repeat;
  background-attachment:fixed;
  line-height:20px; font-size:14px;
  font-family:"Trebuchet MS";
  margin:0
}

EDIT: Now there’s whitespace on the top and bottom (created by the new div class?)

    You can place a div behind everything on the page, give it a background image, and then add an onclick handler to that div. But you can’t hyperlink a background image.

    You’d have to do something like:

    <body>
    <div id='background' onclick='window.location.href="mynewurl"'>
        <!-- Rest of page goes here -->
    </div>
</body>

    Also, add cursor: pointer to the css for the background div so people know it’s a link.
