I think Philippe was referring to the block element being "stretched" (likely a DIV just inside the BODY element). Background images cannot be re-sized in any way at the moment, but will tile automatically if you specify only the background-image URL. Note that DIVs normally "stretch" to fill available horizontal space -- no need to apply any special rules for that- you only need a height. It seems like you want position: fixed; - be aware this does not work in IE 6 and earlier.
