backgrounds

Feb 14.2006

I was just wondering if anyone could help me before I got nuts (lol). I am fairly new to CSS, and I am trying to add a background repeat. I am using frames (iframe) and I want to get a sort of linear effect at each side (left and right/top to bottom). Is this possible because I have tried putting in a code that looks something like this:

[code=html]<style>
body {background – imgae: url (sidein.jpg)
;background – repeat: repeat – y;}
</style>[/code]

everywhere (like the book says) and nothing is happening. What is it I am missing? Or is it because I am using frames? My page unfortunately isn’t uploaded yet so I can’t show you. I am using Dreamweaver.

body {background: #FFF url(sidein.jpg) top center repeat-y;}

@HarryGreinerFeb 14.2006 — You written imgae instead of image.

Try this


background-image: url(sidein.jpg);

background-repeat: repeat-y;

That seems to have worked, but only on one side…as I am trying to get the same effect on both sides of the main frame window. I have tried using one image (with the linear effect at each end) and repeating top to bottom but I could be sat there all day trying to get the width right ?

Sorry to be a pain, do you have an example code. I am pretty new to all this. :o :o
