http://www.ecatholic2000.com the background image only repeats 6 squares with alot of white space in between please try the url with Internet explorer to see how the background should look. I am using simple html : <BODY text=#0000ff vLink=#ff00ff link=#0000ff background="http://www.ecatholic2000.com/pics/stars2.gif" width="" height="" alt="" border="0"> I tried using css with background-repeat: repeat tag but that didn't help either, so I reverted to old html

I neglected to mention that I tried uninstalling and re-installing firefox. I also tried the reset firefox feature. Problem still exists. I have added a screenshot.

Thank you for trying to see if you could help cor-el. Yes I did resolve my problem. I temporarily lost the link to get here to say as much. I have had that html up there for around 10 years to display that background with no problems. After many hours of research on the web and the help faq's here, I found the answer myself by accident. All I had to do was put in the dimensions of the image. I never had to do that before for a background image. So it now reads: background="http://www.ecatholic2000.com/pics/stars2.gif" width="160" height="160" alt="" border="0"> and presto it worked.

Thanks again
