My personal webpage at www.plantofiowa.com Problem with background image on pages like this one: http://plantsofiowa.com/ILH/herbarium_dicots_aster.php Background repeats through appx. the top 25% of the page and then just disappears. Am using an external style sheet and this statement for the background: body {background-image: url(images/background_1.jpg); background-repeat: repeat;} Problem does not occur on shorter pages. Problem does not occur at all with Internet Explorer or Google Chrome. Data on page is complete and correct.
