Problem inserting picture as background

[grinder]

I have a table where I have inserted a picture (from a file) as background.
The picture is smaller than the table and I want it centered.

Problem is it has inserted the pictures four times (2 rows and 2 columns)
instead of once. It is not a problem with the file since only one picture
is present. Must be a Frontpage setting but cannot locate.

Any ideas?

The image must be the exact size of the table otherwise it will tile or repeat in each cell. This is
how HTML works.

Background pictures are always "tiled" in web pages - not like for example the
options to "stretch" or "Centre" the wall paper image in
windows/desktop/properties.

Hi,
you can set the background to be centered and not repeated with CSS, eg
<style type="text/css">
#someID{
background: #fff url(picture.gif) center no-repeat;
}
</style>
and then
<table id="someID">
....
