html - Multiple background image position

Question

Take a look at the fiddle.

background-image: url(http://www.gtsalive.com/images/partners/pizzahut.jpg), url(http://www.gtsalive.com/images/partners/pizzahut.jpg), url(http://www.gtsalive.com/images/partners/pizzahut.jpg), url(http://www.gtsalive.com/images/partners/pizzahut.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 75% 0, 50% 0, 25% 0, 0 0;
width: 400px;

The element is 400px wide and the background image is 100px wide. Each background image position is at 25% intervals, so I would expect each background image to be rendered every 100px, but this is not the case.

Anyone shed some light on this? I guess I'm missing something basic.

Answer 1

You must use the following setting for background-position

background-position: 100% 0, 33.33% 0, 66.67% 0, 0 0;

.background-image {
  background-image: url(http://www.gtsalive.com/images/partners/pizzahut.jpg), url(http://www.gtsalive.com/images/partners/pizzahut.jpg), url(http://www.gtsalive.com/images/partners/pizzahut.jpg), url(http://www.gtsalive.com/images/partners/pizzahut.jpg);
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  background-position: 100% 0, 66.67% 0, 33.33% 0, 0 0;
  width: 400px;
  height: 20px
}
.background-color {
  background: linear-gradient(to right, black 0%, black 25%, blue 25%, blue 50%, green 50%, green 75%, orange 75%);
  width: 400px;
  height: 20px;
}

100px x 20px = http://www.gtsalive.com/images/partners/pizzahut.jpg
