HAY GUYS

Setting the background to "repeat-y" by means of CSS should take care of this for you. However, I also advise you to attach the background to the left or right edges of the browser, so that if someone (probably rare) comes along with 1280x1024 or up, it will not look iffy for them. Also, follow what Stealth mentioned above about the colours matching on one edge--the edge you'd want to do this to is the edge to which the background is not attached.

To do this, open the Design panel, then add a new CSS style by your best means (a little "+" icon on the CSS tab should allow this). Apply the style to the body tag (in a new stylesheet or inline, it does not matter), and when that comes up, set the background as appropriate. You may want to remove styling from the <body> HTML before you do this, though.

Right-click, Page Properties, then clear the background and that should be taken care of. I do not have Dreamweaver available right now, so I cannot help much further aside from giving you raw CSS code. If you cannot get this done by means of the GUI and want the code, let me know.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

You use it vertically like that? Then switch "repeat-y" from above to "repeat-x", and switch the attachment I talk about earlier to either top or bottom.

CSS would be like this:

Code:

body { background: #b7bae6 url(bg_grad.jpg) bottom left repeat-x; }

Of course, alter the url() as appropriate (to account for image directories and such). If you want to inject it directly into that page, you can do this by one of two means.

Ignore the below, as you seem to have already gotten it taken care of. I just added this in case you needed it.

First Method:
Add the below code between your <head> and </head> tags:

Code:

<style type="text/css">
body { background: #b7bae6 url(bg_grad.jpg) bottom left repeat-x; }
</style>

Or the Second Method:
Alter your <body> tag to reflect this:

Code:

<body style="background: #b7bae6 url(bg_grad.jpg) bottom left repeat-x;">

I advise you use the first method, if not opting for an external stylesheet outright.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
