Hello,
I am trying to give a background to a Div repeating it on the y
direction.
Please, notice the alternate of colors:

Does anyone has any idea why is this happening?
I have been fighting to solve this and I wasn't able to do it ...
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.
But your case is misleading:
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.
I have to go out to my backyard now and hit myself several times hard
with a handy bit of timber I keep for the purpose. Whenever I get cross
with JK I also incant at the same time "I must not be such a disgusting
coward. I must not be such a disgusting coward". Excuse me.
