I've been trying to figure out why my background image is not fading in. I've tried using css/jquery and also the w3 route. I can see that the background image is actually showing up and I have checked to see that the jquery code is actually working for any tags I nest inside the body tag. I have read other posts but they are not helping.
$(document).ready(function(){
$("body").hide().fadeIn(3000);
});
body {
background-attachment: fixed;
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
background-image: url('../images/index.jpeg');
}
