Hi everyone.Im new to these forums, and have decided (or more like forced..hehe) to use CSS. Now, i am going over the tutorials, but have yet to see something that can help me out. (Or my CSS understanding needs more understanding). I am trying to make a table/div bleed all the way to the top and bottom.. If you take a look at this site:http://www.helenbwilson.comOk, I want to keep the black background, but I want the white to run all the way to the top and bottom-that is, just having black to the sides. Can I acheive this, without having to do a complete makeover of the site? I am willing to do that, but right now, I want to get my friends site up and running, and when one is complete, I want to go in and re-do it in CSS (Which i will make another topic so I can get help with that..) But for right now, I was wondering if there is something I can do about it right now. I am using Dreamweaver 8.Any help would be greatly appreciated!Thanks, and hopefully I will get better at CSS..-psypent

one method that some people use to get this effect is to actually use a centered background image that repeats along the vertical axis (Y)something like this body {text-align: center; background: url(../images/body_bg.gif) repeat-y center #3D3D30; }followed by a wrapper to hold in the content#wrap {margin: 0 auto; width: 760px; text-align: left;}heres an example of something like that in actionhttp://www.tibus.com/and heres the background image: http://www.tibus.com/images/background-new.gifi have used this technique and its very easy to get it working across all the browsershope this helps
