IE6 image stretching annoyance

I would love for someone to be able to help - usual state of insanity with this!

Here is a site I have designed (I would class myself as a fairly competent novice).

The site is on my domain at the moment:

http://www.fionamurdoch.co.uk/

It looks ok until the homepage (and one other page that I have
found)is refreshed and then the curtain
(background image) resizes. If you then go round the site and
click back to the homepage it is fine again.

I can post the code if needed but I thought it may be something
that someone 'in the know' would pick up on right away - fingers
crossed!!



TIA

Fiona

in your index file here is the code you need to change:
<div id="content" class="contentimage"> <img src="images/indeximage.gif"
alt="A collage of pictures from various shows" width="100%" height="100%"/>

Change to width="663px" height="250px"

That should do the trick.

Firstly, thanks so much for your reply!

Ok, I made the change, but now the stretched image is present on all the pages (except on the VERY first visit to the homepage).....and also now when I resize to 600x800 the collage image goes squint instead of staying centered. I will leave it so you can have another look!

I like where we are going though!

Try putting a div container around the entire thing and set it using styles to have that image as its background, and set that div to be 100% height and width, then also set html and body to height 100%. Also see this http://www.htmlite.com/faq022.php
