I want to use a picture as my background, except when I insert the picture
in the page it becomes "tiled" and the entire picture is not displayed.

Is there a way to set the picture as my background and have the entire
picture centered and displayed? I can't seem to find a setting for that.

It is a "frame" page if that makes a difference.


Thanks in advance for any help!!

Use CSS -

<body style="backgroundosition:center;background-repeat:no-repeat;">

Where do I insert the body style adjustment?
When I put it in before or after the background command my picture
disappears.....

<body background="Images/Sunset-Sea%20Oats.jpg"><body>

Just use something like this:

<body background="cells.gif">

Where cells.gif is your image file. Make sure it is in the correct
location.

That does not do what I want. This is a frame-page and the picturre is
"tiled" on the page and I want it centered.

You can not apply a background to the frameset
- only to each frame which is a separate window

You can only have one <body> tag in a page.

First, rename all your files and folders to remove spaces. Replace the
spaces with hyphens or underlines.

Then replace your <body> tag with (should all be on one line):

<body style="background: url(Images/Sunset-Sea-Oats.jpg) center
no-repeat;">

Note that spaces in file and folder names can break links.

You do know about frames and how they cause physical disabilities, right?

Perhaps I should have added mental disabilities to my warning alert! 8)
