I am trying to make the background always go down to the bottom of the page.

Using css is there a way to make the image have a variable heights.

I would like the bottom of the image to always be about an inch from the bottom of the page once it scrolls all the way to the bottom.

and
see how on the contacts page it doesn't stretch to the bottom?

Whats that called or how do I do it?

Thanks

You mean you want your background to stretch the length of the page when the page is longer than the image you're using? No, you cannot do that. You would need to use a repeating background that is just the sides as the background to your main area and then the curved bottom as a footer.

I think I just need to put in class tags or something.

This is what I have so far but the bottombg and topbg are not showing up.

Is there something I have to do to get .headbg and .footerbg to work with my html code?

This is my style sheet

body {
font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
background-color: #282828;
color: #CCCCCC;
background-image: url(../myimages/middlebg.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-position: center center;
}
.headbg {
background-image: url(../myimages/topbg.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center top;
}
.footerbg {
background-image: url(../myimages/bottombg.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center bottom;
}
