__ doesn't allow the background image scroll with its containing element, but allows it to scroll with the element's content. The answer is local. Why? I think it must be scroll if I don't misunderstand the question.

The answer is local because when this value is used with the background-attachment property it causes the background to scroll along with the element's contents. The scroll property, on the other hand, causes the background to scroll along with the element itself.
For more information on the background-attachment property you should check out W3Schools
Hope I clarified things! Good luck!

7,195 PointsThanks buddy But I am still wondering whether the background image scrolls with the containing element instead of the content under both values...
