havnt coded for about a month or two so i think its that

I believe if they did do that on the middle div then it'll technically stop it from expanding fully, they'd have to use background-repeat: repeat-y; to make it just repeat horizontally

DannLea , if you are still having problems post the actual images and i'll edit the stylesheet for you

I hate CSS

I only use it for font styling, CSS may be a lot more web 2.0 in the coding, but tables do the exact same job

its not that CSS is web 2.0.. Its the fact that it is much easier to readand follow and is much higher up the web standard. It works well for all browsers and is A LOT easier to edit than tables. You can structure it so its easy to follow ad gives you more experience for what companies would want if you want to be a web designer/ICT person

I corrected your statement for you

Tables were created to display information in , not to hold images together to build a site. Tables are much much more harder to understand for someone trying to edit the code aswell as much messier syntax wise and most of the times they take forever to load. Also they look very tacky on larger sites when you scroll the page
