What exactly are you surprised by?

I see no repeat-y in your CSS. Perhaps you are wanting repeat-x and are
surprised by the y repeat (which is part of the default repeat).

To repeat in other words: repeat in both directions is default for
background images. You have to specify restrictions if you do not want
this.

Quote:
Your image is 980px wide and so is your div, so *of course* it cannot
repeat in the horizontal direction and since you have done nothing to
stop it repeating in the vertical direction, it does.

Sherm,

Thank you to point that to me. I forgot to hide the gradient on
Photoshop and I was all this time going around my CSS.

Thank you both for your time.

Miguel
