Establish the location of the left (x) with the background-image attribute.
This tag allows the user to specify the percentage of the block-level element's box width or height (respectively) at which the image (or repeated images) begins. Instead of percentages, you can specify length values (in the unit of measure that best suits the medium). In lieu of the numerical values, you may use one axis-specific constant value per attribute.
