One Tiny Graphic Bug In IE6 (on my site)
I'm creating a site, for a client, and I can't figure out why the site looks fine in FF & IE7, but not in IE6. It's only a slight cosmetic problem, but it's really bugging me. If you look at the bottom of the page, using IE6, you'll see what I mean. The content_bg.gif repeats too far.

h++p://www.scottmeter.com

Can anyone tell me how to remedy this problem?

Thanks!

Re: One Tiny Graphic Bug In IE6 (on my site)
put this in your css code:
background-repeat:no-repeat;

and it'll do the job ;)

???

Thanks for the advice, but I'm afraid that doesn't make any sense. Have you looked at the CSS code? I WANT the bg to repeat. I just want it to stop where it's supposed to.

I'm only talking about the content DIV

REMOVE this from the HTML:

<div id="footerline"></div>

REMOVE this from the CSS:

#footerline {clear:both; background-image:url(../img/footer_bg.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat; width:717px; height:10px; margin:0px; padding:0px; }

Finally, ADD this to the #footer:

#footer {background-image:url(footer_bg.gif); background-repeat:no-repeat; font-size:12px; text-align:center; padding: 10px 0px; color:#FFFFFF; }

Hmmm...that didn't work. It left the entire content div with no bg.

The reason is probably the image's file path. The code I posted is calling on the image on my server.

#footer {background-image:url(../img/footer_bg.gif); background-repeat:no-repeat; font-size:12px; text-align:center; padding: 10px 0px; color:#FFFFFF; }

I believe that's the path. If not, just correct it and it will work.

I saw that and immediately made it right. It didn't work, even after making that change.

I looked at your site. Did you upload the changes because it still has the same old codes.

Yes. Then I undid the changes and uploaded again. I couldn't leave the site looking the way it did.
