You are a genious!! Thank you so much.

The reason why I am taking the image back a directory is because of the template - it's in a different place and it needs to be!

Thank you sooooooo much!

type="text/css">
.type1 {
background-attachment: fixed;
background-image: url(images/stripe001.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center center;
}
//-->

And this code in the page:

I don't know why you're going up a directory and back down for the images? There is no pseudo-class called :body. center center won't work for Netscape 4.x, it will always be top left. And you HAVE TO use the period infront of a class if you're not specifying an element.

either:

td.type1

or:

.type1

Anyway, if you use the code above it works fine. The HTML part is right.

Thank you for responding. I tried that and several variations and it is still not working.

Any more ideas?

instead of a.type1:body just use .type1
was that cut and pasted or just typed out? looks like your missing a '(' around your background image source, which should be:
background-image: url(../TTE/images/stripe001.gif);
you missed out the 'url' bit

if the image is the same size as the table cell, you only need to use the background image: url part, dont need the fixed, centered, no repeat, like so:

.type1 {
background-image: url(../TTE/images/stripe001.gif);
}

Any ideas?

what's the problem?

css and backgrounds

Brooke — Fri, 07 Jun 2002 00:37:06 +0000

Hey you guys

I was doing a search and it seems like you guys might know the answer to this one.

I have a background that I want to put in a table cell. I do not want the background to repeat.

I am using dreamweaver and I am using templates (they are kind of like ssi's.)

I have this code in the main template:

And this code in the page:

you will find you have problems with offline viewing if you don't have a virtual server set up on your machine, or if you use root urls for your image location.

I use css for bg's now as mairving says the titling is easier to control and easier to change if needed.
