Hi

Not sure if this is the right section of the forum for this question.

I am trying to shorten the background in this header I am working on. I do not know java at all so I am less then a newbe perhaps a wanabe (smile)

here it is anyway.

body {
color: #333333;/*themecolour6%0;*/
background-color: #FFFFFF;/*themecolour6;*/
background-image: url(Home-1_files/Home-1_topstrip.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
font-family: "trebuchet ms", Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 9pt;

It is called topstrip.gif it is just a small image that gets repeated over and over. I want to decrease the number of times it repeats to make it line up with the width of the rest of the page.

I have tried changing the -x to different values but everything I do seems to just make it repeat over the whole page and not just in that cell.

Would this repeat value be in the Java for the page?

Thanks in advance for your time and help

Hi

DAAAAAA...........HELLO..................I just remembered that as a background image it just repeats and fills the page or cell.

I guess I will have to shrink the cell size.

Mods you can delete this thread if you wish there is no option for me to do it ..well not that I can see.

thanks.

That's not Java, it's Javascript.
Put it in the Javascript forum if there is one, otherwise the html forum, and format it properly so people can actually read it.

Hi everyone,

That's not Java, it's Javascript.

I don't mean to be bad but i am getting sick of this type of posts.

Can't people tell the difference between Java and JavaScript??

And what the OP post there. I doubt anyone in the JavaScript forum would be able to decipher that
