This common parent element should have the background-image. Example: <div> header </div> <div> <!-- body with background-image --> <div> left navigation </div> <div> contents </div> </div> <!-- end of body --> <div> footer </div> regards, Uwe Kaiser Rutgers schrieb: > Thx, I'll give it a try! > > Ian > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Uwe Kaiser [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: May 13, 2005 6:25 PM > To: Ian & Anna-Ruth Rutgers > Subject: Re: [css-d] Space below left nav > > Ian & Anna-Ruth Rutgers schrieb: > >>Thank you everyone for your help with my work on this page.
