I am trying to have same bg image displayed over to the child . I want the same parent image to be stretched to the child div tag as well. I am not able to find a way .any thoughts? Thanks in advance for the help . Here is te code. If you try out in Chrome and IE you can see the difference. In IE it works fine.

<html>
<div align="left" id="div1" style="width: 500px; height: 40px; color: grey; background-image: url(&quot;static.myopera.com/community/graphics/speeddials/…;); font-size: 20px; font-style: italic;">

  <div align="left" style=" background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 100px; height: 38px;" > </div>

  <div align="left" id="divContent" style="width: 100%; height: 100%; color: grey; "> test</div>
</div>
</html>

Thoughts?

Hi JV,

What do you mean "over to the child"? You want the parent background image to appear under the child div as well? I'll test this out when I have a minute.

I edited your code for easier reading. I think it would also help to have the CSS pulled out into <style> tags instead of inline in the HTML. If you want to post code here, just wrap it in <code> tags and everything will appear properly.
