vertically strech background image across div

[ajcool123]

Hi Guys,

Here is what my site looks like now. I am trying to stretch the green/red background image so that it fills depending on how much text is provided. Attached is a copy of the background image as well as the CSS/HTML.

Body.jpg is the image I am trying to stretch vertically based on how much content is in the div.

Please take a look at what it looks like, does anyone have any CSS suggestions?

Also any thoughts on how to remove the white bar between images in IE?

Thanks!

The white bar under your header?

What do you mean by 'how much text is provided'? As in , how far vertically down the text will go? So you only want that background to be shown behind text?

You can see the white space between the top image and the body image. Why is that there? It does not look like that in firefox.

What I want to have happen is when there is more text than the height of the background, I want it to stretch to fill instead of repeating the background. Does that make sense?

Thanks!
