background position problem

[Ruriko]

This is my layout http://ruriko.awardspace.com/

#bg {
	position:absolute;
	width:740px;
	height:604px;
	z-index:1;
	background-image: url(images/sphyro_01.jpg);
	background-color: #94CBFF;
	background-repeat: no-repeat;
	top: 0px;
	border-top-width: 1px;
	border-right-width: 1px;
	border-bottom-width: 1px;
	border-left-width: 1px;
	border-right-style: solid;
	border-left-style: solid;
	border-top-color: #000066;
	border-right-color: #000066;
	border-bottom-color: #000066;
	border-left-color: #000066;
	left: 130px;
}
#Nav {
	position:absolute;
	width:216px;
	height:486px;
	z-index:1;
	left: 20px;
	top: 1px;
	background-image: url(nav_bg.jpg);
	background-repeat: no-repeat;
	background-position: 0px 448px;
}
#Content {
	position:absolute;
	width:482px;
	height:119px;
	z-index:2;
	left: 245px;
	top: 371px;
	background-image: url(content_bg.jpg);
	background-repeat: repeat-y;
	background-position: 0px 78px;
}

You noticed in the content box the background is repeating from the start instead of the position that I set at. I want the background to be positioned 78px vertical and repeat the background at where it's positioned.

Another question how do you make the whole layout centered vertically?

I don't know whether it's kosher but the directional repeats appear to "wrap".

[Ruriko]

what is kosher? what do you mean it appears to be wrap?

[ray326]

It looks like the repeat is bidirectional. You can define where the upper-left corner of the tiled image should appear but you can't restrict the range of the repeat.

"Being kosher" is a colloquialism for "done by the rules." It comes from the idea of adherance to the prescribed method for certain kinds of Jewish foods.
