height: 100%;

That doesn't mean 100% of the document.

In your case, it's coming out to be 100% of the viewport. Leave height
out and the background may adjust fine all by itself.

BTW, I can't read the text in those navigation graphics, it's much too
small. The page also does not adjust so well to a larger text size -
much of the text in the upper right corner disappears.

thank you kchayka, i followed your advice and removed the "height:
100%;" value. only at div.bgTextboxLe ft and div.bgTextboxRi ght i left
the 100% because the contained background.gif would not tile at all
otherwise.

strangely enough this does not work with the following document, which
is more or less the same code:
http://tomasio.laudatio.com/jobs/Cla..._ba.php?bild=1

the referring CSS is here:

Do you have an idea what's wrong here?

You haven't really explained what you think the problem is, but I will
hazard a guess that you want that box thingy in the middle to extend
down to the bottom of the viewport, or the bottom of the page, whichever
is longer.

I suggest you stop wanting this. But if you insist, search the google
archives for this group. The subject certainly comes up often enough.

I managed to conceive sort of what i wanted with a background image.
but you were right, i wanted something unconceivable - at least with
my approach ; )

Hi, I have found an issue when comparing Firefox with IE6 (Windows) where a page links to a css file that is in it's own directory. IE6 URL property of the background css element uses the location of the css file as the root when looking for the background image. Firefox uses the location of the page that links the css as the root for the background image. This css will work for Firefox :

hi there, I created two different backgrounds for the same page to obtain a (fake) left margin and a (true) right margin. -> left background, defined in body section, aligned bottom and with vertical repeat. -> right background, defined in html section, aligned top and without repeat it may look weird, but I don't think my problem is due to these margins.

OK, I've managed to get just about everything working in CSS and XHTML, but there is one last peice of the jigsaw. http://www.seajays.org.uk/2know_dev/ At the moment on the site, I have a gray striped background behind the left hand menu. This was achieved using a body background image. It looks OK, until you change the size of the text in the browser (i.e. larger, smaller etc), and then the menu items start to float out past

Well, how can I describe this succinctly? I have a page with DIVs that us background images to produce a border effect.

I've set a background image to repeat-y and at 100% height. It appears fine when I open the window, but when I resize to a smaller height so that I must scroll down to see the rest, the background image is suddenly gone from the bottom. #background { position: absolute; top: 0px; bottom: 0px; left: 50%;

Hi, I've created a nav bar using a background image for rollover effects. Everything works as I had hoped, however, for some reason it seems that an area of whitespace (the same size of the background image) is hyperlinked underneath the nav bar.
