try a real url not a relative path.
i.e. =
http://www.kyburz.net/projects/copa/site/global_images/left_navbar_bg.jpg=


FYI the layout breaks in firebird/mozilla as well.

Subject: Non-tiling background image for table cell using css?


Dear all,

I was reading with great interest the discussion on how to control=20
the background with css.

I've just run into a similar problem.

Here is the site under re-construction (it was done in frames using=20
flash navigation before by a different design company)

http://www.kyburz.net/projects/copa/site/

There is this "paper background" the client does not want to give up.

For the lefthand side I have a little gif to continue the green=20
column and used this in the external style sheet:

.tile_left_column {
background-image: url(../global_images/left_navbar_bg.jpg);=20
background-repeat: repeat-y }

for the <td> tag

Well, it would not work at all and I'm quite stuck with this one.

Any and all input on how to tame this is very much apprecitiated.


Greetings,

:: doris
