I'm creating a responsive design so my website is viewed well on both Desktop and Mobile devices. On my website I have a pretty large background image on one of my divs.
Now what I have been wondering is: Does the background image on my div load if it is replaced by a color in a media query?
Example:
div {
background: url(img/large-image.jpg);
}
@media screen and (min-width: 240px) and (max-width:830px) {
div {
background: #000;
}
}
No it wouldn't as you're completely overriding the background
property*.
For reference, however, if you wish to keep your image and add in a colour, rather than using the background
property, use the individual background-image
and background-color
properties:
div {
background-image: url(img/large-image.jpg);
}
@media screen and (min-width: 240px) and (max-width:830px) {
div {
background-color: #000;
}
}
* Note that this is browser-specific; to save time the majority of browsers will only load resources when they're required. See also: Are unused CSS images downloaded?
Your images are still loaded by browser, as long as they are in your CSS. You can check it by using Chrome Debugger Tool > Network.
