What exactly are you surprised by?

I see no repeat-y in your CSS. Perhaps you are wanting repeat-x and are

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

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.

Thank you both for your time.
