    Default can i make background not repeat inside a table

    how do i make a background not repeat inside a table? i know how to do it for
    the page background but not inside a table. i thought it was in one of the
    menus that you could tell it not to repeat?
    here's my simple code:

    <body>
    <table width="657" height="187" border="1" align="right"
    background="background.jpg" background:no-repeat>
    <tr>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    </tr>
    </table>
    </body>
    </html>


    Thanks. i know it's simple, but i freakin' couldn't find something simple and
    stupid as this in the help files. i'm also not a web developer.

    Default Re: can i make background not repeat inside a table

    background="background.jpg" style="background-repeat:no-repeat;">

    Or -

    table { background-repeat:no-repeat; }

    in a stylesheet embedded in the head of the document, or linked in the head
    of the document.

    The only way to make a background not repeat is to do it either as an embedded
    or an external style sheet. You get 4 options in CSS; Repeat, No Repeat, Repeat
    X , Repeat Y. If you have a whole load of pages you wanted do this to then it's
    probably a good idea to use an external style sheet.

    You can also do it as inline styles, as I showed.

    Actually, you have only struck lead (Pb).

    To strike gold (Au), you would have to not use an inline style for that at
    all, by placing that style into an embedded or externally linked
    stylesheet....
