I wonder if anyone knows how to do this: (I have the go ahead from my superior to make the site left-aligned, but this is a compromise. the site needs to be centred for it to be viewable at 800X600. I'm too curious to let this problem go!) The layout is a centred box. There are 3 content sections in rows. Each has a heading and each has a horiztonal rule after it. Both the heading and the horizontal rule have background shading that stretches out to the left edge of the screen. If the site is centred, how can I make sure that these background images will repeat to the leftmost edge of the viewport when the browser is resized? or if the site is viewed on a large resolution monitor (21" plus). and, if the browser is resized to 800X600 the site must be centred in order to fit, as it is 798px wide. Any tips are most welcome! I've tried using absolute positioning but I think I''m too confused now!
