Hi Cole,

I think the problem is the repeat-y will fill the image vertically over the
entire contents no matter where you position it initially. You may try a
vertical 1px by 1000px (or taller than your page will ever be) image. And
use the following:

        background:
url(/resources/5661/assets/images_medical/wrapper_vertical_tile.jpg)
repeat-x 0 300px;

Regards,
Kepler Gelotte

Subject: [WSG] Tiling image problem

Hello All -

I'm setting a 1px by 770px image to repeat vertically within a wrapper div.
Difference is that I need this repeat to START 300px from the top of the
wrapper.

So far, no luck. Here's the code:

#wrapper {
        position: relative;
        width: 770px;
        margin: 0 auto;
        text-align: left;
        background:
url(/resources/5661/assets/images_medical/wrapper_tile.jpg) repeat-y 0
300px;
}

Reason I'm starting off at 300px from the top is because I need the top of
the wrapper to be transparent so the tiling body background can be seen
above and below the header, but the area behind the nav and content areas
NEED to be white.

So, is it possible to start a tile a certain distance from the top of a
containing div?

If so, can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks to all in advance!

Cole
