I applied a background image to the body of this website and positioned it at the top so it gives the illusion that the background color fades from one color to another. On the homepage it looks correct, however when I add excessive text to the body of the "Rates" Page, the background image appears to be shifting down from the top. I can't seem to figure out what I have done wrong. Can anyone see the problem?

I am viewing this page with Firefox.

The page with the problem is:

Sincerely,
Kimberly

You have written it wrong. You use one declaration for the horizontal position and one for the vertical position. 'background-position' takes two values. If one is omitted it's set to 'center'.

"If a background image has been specified, this property specifies its initial position. If only one value is specified, the second value is assumed to be 'center'."
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/colors.html#prop...ground-position

You have this.
CODE
body   { background-position:top;
         background-position:center }


Which is the same as this.
CODE
body   { background-position:top center;
         background-position:center center }


So you see that the second declaration overrules the first.
