Non Tiling Background

1. Open your document in dreamweaver. Make sure it is saved to your hard drive.

2. Click the menus Text=> CSS Styles=> New.

3. On the New CSS Style dialog box, set the following in this order:

  • Set the selector type to TAG first.
  • Set the Tag drop down box to body
  • Set Define in this document only if it is limited to this document, or new style sheet (or one in the drop down that you have already created.)

4. The CSS Style deinition box will appear. Select Background from the catagory on the left. On the right you have the following options you can set.

  • background color- the background of your entire page.
  • Background image- the image you want to select that in this case wont tile
  • Repeat-
    • Set this to no-repeat so your background will not tile.
    • Set to repeat will tile your background, this is the default for a page.
    • repeat-x will repeat horizontally
    • repeat-y will repeat vertically only

  • Attachment is either fixed (nonmoving) or scrolling
  • Horizontal position is left, right or center
  • Vertical position is top, bottom or middle.

In this case, I selected just no repeat for the non tiling background.
