Creating a background that hugs the left and right sides of the page in Dreamweaver?

This is my first project with Dreamweaver. I have a disability and cannot type very well so, I like to work in design view as much as possible.I have a background image that I want to use. How can I make it hug to the left and right sides of the screen taking out maybe 200 or 300 pixels on either side. I have added the image to the body tag of the page. Fiddling with the CSS settings I am able to get it on the left side or the right side of the page but not both.

 

Hi,

I believe you are trying to align the background to center.
