Hi Kieron, Thanks for the reply.

Hi Riva, I noticed in some pages there is a double reference to the background image: one in the css body { background:..} but one in the html as well: body background=images/backgroundjune.jpg. For instance in: index.htm, whatis.htm and expect.htm. Then in the css there is also a * html #bodytext {...} with the same bg-img. Maybe reasons why IE is flashing (or maybe not, it's IE ;-) ). And in some pages there is a /div too much (under/above the footer, depending on the footer inside the wrapper or not). I suppose this are some rests of earlier tests. Deleting them will diminish (but not exclude) the risk of strange things happening in IE (and others). Should be good to give the html-validator http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.starqualitydesigns.com%2FMoodus%2Fexpect.htmcharset=%28detect+automatically%29doctype=Inliness=1verbose=1 a chance every now then! :-) And the css-validator http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?profile=css2warning=2uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.starqualitydesigns.com%2FMoodus%2Fexpect.htm as well. :-) Greetings, francky __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
Re: [css-d] Background flashes
Hi Francky, The reason behind the double reference is editing that I forgot to undo. I saw articles on line about putting the image inside something but not something else, etc. and so I tried it. Thank you for pointing this out. I will remove it.

[css-d] Background flashes
Hi all, I designed a website that has a big picture on the background (per the _client's_ request) and I find that the background flashes in IE - not just once, but every time I go to the page. I tried all the usual fixes I could find and even cleared the cache, but it is still happening. Any advice would be much appreciated.
