You can always set a 100%x100% div with a background image and a super low z-index with position: fixed ? That might be kind of a ghetto way of doing it, but it might work.

LOL. Well, it works. I'm not sure why you'd ever want to do it this way. I'm also not sure if it still bugs out in chrome like background-attachment. (I'm not familiar with that bug.)

Position fixed in css should have work fine, background position(x,y) is good for an option as well
