OK so i'v made a layout and thers a image that i want as a background in my table. The table will vary in size and content but i want the background to stay the same even when it exised it's atual height.

<td Background="Site/site_08.gif" width="254" height="763">

is what i am usieng so far so i thought that if i put

<td Background="Site/site_08.gif" width="254" height="100%">

Then problem solved but infact it jsut makes the table 100% and not the image.

HElp?

hmmm....i don't think I quite understand. Can I have a link to the page please?

See how it says text in teh side well if i put lots of text tehr then it repaetes the background and that looks very odd.
so i need to make the background image height a certen height how do i do this?

if your on about stretching the image, that would reduce the quality... the only thing that I can think of is taking a section of the background and letting it repeat down using CSS... I'm abit confused though

are you saying the image should stretch as the page varies in height? This is how it sounds and I can't image this......from a cosmetics standpoint. That would look horrible. Take your image and stretch the height at various %'s. Maybe I misunderstand this totally though.

also, i could b totally wrong but i'm not sure you can mix pixels numbers with %'s. i think you need to be consistent with them......again I could be very wrong.
