Hi,
Glad I found this forum. I have a very annoying problem. For one of my websites the <body> tag doesn't cover the whole page. So when I try to add a background image, the image only cover half of the page. I used the W3C validators, firebug, other validators etc. I really can't figure this out. I also tried to set height and width to the <html> en <body> tag but that didn't fixed my problem neither. I do have some html and css skills but this one I really can't figure out. Probably I don't see it anymore or I'm misreading something. My website is currently in development and can be found here: http://meules1.webshopapp.com/ Please help. Kind regards, Meules |

This is probably a CSS issue, so I move the thread there.
What you describe might happen if you specify backgrounds for both the HTML (root) element and BODY, like this: CODE html {background-color: pink;} body {background-image: url(dog.jpg);} but the page links so many stylesheets that I can't look through them all. See also http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/colors.html#background There are also CSS errors: http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validat...ng=&lang=en most of them seem to be due to unrecognized CSS3 properties and browser extensions, but this one sounds relevant here: QUOTE URI : http://assets.webshopapp.com/meules1/preset.css?46 8 body Value Error : background-repeat repea is not a background-repeat value : repea |

And you might have to clear any floats in the right places.
You might want to use Nicolas Gallagher's New micro clearfix hack for that. |

Christian,
Thanks for your reply! I've fixed it. Problem was indeed a color for the <html> tag and a background for the <body> tag. Thx |
