Question

Is it possible to put base64 background image in multiple lines instead of one long line? If so, how?

My current body CSS is:

body {
  background-color:  #FFFFFF;
  background-image:  url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAgAAAAICAIAAABLbSncAAAAAXNSR0IArs4c6QAAAARnQU1BAACxjwv8YQUAAAAJcEhZcwAADsMAAA7DAcdvqGQAAAAZSURBVBhXY/iABP4jAQYqSiCbi2wsA/UkAIeAuaFCb0TzAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC);
  background-repeat: repeat;
  height: 100%;
}

Answer 1

Put your code between quotes and put a backslash before breaking to new line.

body {
    background-color:  #FFFFFF;
    background-image:  url('data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUg\
    AAAAgAAAAICAIAAABLbSncAAAAAXNSR0IArs4c6QAAAARnQ\

    MAAA7DAcdvqGQAAAAZSURBVBhXY/iABP4j\
    AQYqSiCbi2wsA/UkAIeAuaFCb0TzAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC');
    background-repeat: repeat;
    height: 100%;
}
