Thanks to Larry I got the top problem sorted but am having problems understanding how to get the bottom image working.

I am following the instructions at:

http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=10665

In Ata "add html/css inserts" I guess the correct area to be putting this into is the CSS Inserts, this I have tried but am not seeing anything when adding the code below:

html{background:#ffffff;background-image:url('/shop/wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/footer_background.gif.gif');background-repeat:repeat-x;background-position:left bottom;}

Also in the thread refered to above there is a line stating:

This adds another background image to the html tag and positions it at the bottom. Put the background color in the html tag and remove it from the body tag.

Where do I remove it from the body tag please.

Many thanks Larry

Note, spotted my typo above:

footer_background.gif.gif'

got rid of the extra.gif but made no difference

Fixed

we figured out where to change the body tag and then we saw the image, it was too high up so we added a bunch of <br>'s into the HTML inserts:body bottom - may not be the pretty way to do it but it works in all major browsers.

Once again thanks to Larry for the intial directions

Cheers

Dave
