    Default background-position issues.

    Hey. I need to set my background position and it's pretty easy if I make sure the background is unrepeated, however I need the background to "repeat-y".

    Every time I set the position it just springs to the top, is there any efficient way of repeating a background and setting its position?

    e.g:

    I want to set the position of the background to 50px down with:
    background-position: 0 50px;

    If I now change background-repeat to:
    background-repeat: repeat-y;

    it then goes across the whole div, whereas I need to to repeat from 50px downwards.

    I dont mind using javascript if theres a way to do it that way, I just need to find a solution.

    edit:
    Searched around for a bit and it seems there is no solution.

    css..

    body {
    background:url(images/bg.png) repeat-y;
    margin-top: 50px;
    }

    That wouldn't be the solution. I've already got a background image and adding a margin to the top wouldn't help anything.

    instead of doing it as background you could do it as a div...
