OKay, actually it doesn't need to repeat itself as the bg is actually a bit bigger then the height of the page, so it can be just once and i'll make it fixed, bot how can i make it go along the right side? repeat-y makes it go against the left side but i want it against the right side. I tried no-repeat and the attribute being 100& 0& (all the way to the left and starts at the top) but it doesn't work. So how do i do it?

I am not sure but trying using x not y ?????

Have you tried positioning it along the right side (background-position: top right;)? Sorry if that's what you meant by 'the attribute being 100& 0&'.

That is my code and i want the background to repeat itself *or not reapeat, it dun matter) along the left, how do i change it so it will?

i think you put repeat-x instead of y..i'm not sure though

i tried that, and the background still doesn't show up

Try

<style type="text/css">

A:link
{ text-decoration: none; color:#004B90; }
A:visited
{ text-decoration: none; color:#004B90; }
A:active
{ text-decoration: line-through; color:#000000 }
A:hover
{ text-decoration: underline overlinecolor:blue;
}

you also need a semicolon and line break (actually just the semicolon, the line break is just for readability :P) after the underline overline part:

text-decoration: underline overline;
color: blue;

you should also use the hex code for colors, not the name :)
