Hello, Ok, I am using a template for a site and on the left side bar this yellow/red bar image repeats. I would like it to stay on top since it matches the header, but if I can stop it from repeating that would be great. The problem is that it makes some of the longer pages look a bit empty on the left. here is the site askmac dot com Take a look a a couple of the pages and see what I mean. I would appreciate any advice you can give. Denise
Thank you for your reply. I'm learning as I go, so bear with me. My css style sheet only deals with text, so I assume that the property needs to go on the template itself. Right? Here is what I have to work with : <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=us-ascii"> <link href="images/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"> </head> <body style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0"> <!-- ImageReady Slices (builders1_slice.psd) --> <table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="770"> <tbody> <tr> <td colspan="2"><object codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" height="322" width="770"> <param name="_cx" value="20373"> <param name="_cy" value="8520"> <param name="FlashVars" value=""> <param name="Movie" value="images/header.swf"> <param name="Src" value="images/header.swf"> <param name="WMode" value="Window"> <param name="Play" value="0"> <param name="Loop" value="-1"><param name="Quality" value="High"> <param name="SAlign" value=""> <param name="Menu" value="0"> <param name="Base" value=""> <param name="AllowScriptAccess" value=""> <param name="Scale" value="ShowAll"> <param name="DeviceFont" value="0"> <param name="EmbedMovie" value="0"> <param name="BGColor" value=""> <param name="SWRemote" value=""><param name="MovieData" value=""> <param name="SeamlessTabbing" value="1"> <param name="Profile" value="0"> <param name="ProfileAddress" value=""> <param name="ProfilePort" value="0"> <param name="AllowNetworking" value="all"> <param name="AllowFullScreen" value="false"> <embed src="images/header.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="322" width="770"> </object></td> </tr> <tr> <td background="images/index_02.jpg"valign="top" width="284"> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tbody> <tr> <td width="15"> </td> <td> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tbody> <tr> <td> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tbody> <tr> <td width="40%"><input class="gray" name="textfield"></td> I've been playing with it but so far I'm not getting anywhere? So maddening! I'll keep playing, if I figure it out, I'll let you know. Denise
