    View attachment about.html

    This file is in dreamweaver..

    I have been working on this page and i can't figure out why the content goes down past the backround on the page. I want the backround to fit all the content in it..

    could somewhere do that for me real quick or just show me how.

    Probably if you don't see the CSS file you don't have one. Are you putting all of your styles inline? It would be a file named something like style.css and it would be linked to the page in the head of the HTML doc.

    Oops, been so busy I keep forgetting to log into DigitalPoint!

    Anyway nah he's not putting it inline, you can see that from the file he linked. 

    TheFreelancerGuy, the CSS you need to show us is located at "scripts/css/main.css", relative to wherever you had index.html saved. Alternatively you could upload it online and then give us a link so we can take a look at it for you.

    If you're new to this stuff now would be a good time to learn more about basic HTML and CSS though. Looking at your code there's a lot of redundant code in there which you can remove! :)

    Anyway let me know if you still can't find it.
