Have you encountered this bug in IE6 with background-repeat repeat-x or repeat-y in body? If the page is in a frame it will not render the page right, instead the page becomes un-readable (if not already on the load, then atleast when you use scrollbars)… I only found out this because if you send a link to a hotmail account, the bloody hotmail opens the link to a window with frames… annoying as *beep*!

What I have in my css is something simple like...

body{
background-image: url(../images/topgradientgrey.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
}

You can see the bug live at http://www.interquess.com/test/

Bug is seen atleast w/ IE6 and windows XP… works fine in opera and gecko.

Anybody had the same problem? Solutions?

Wierd... I checked it out and it was alll messed up when I first loaded it... I minimized IE and then had it poped up again and it was correct... It looks correct in Mozilla... So it def. seems to be a bug.

Yep. I sent a mail to microsoft support as well, and see if they have an answer... It seems to be some sort of screen refresh bug... if you use the scrollbars it never refreshes correctly... And the bug only appears if I set repeat-x or repeat-y for the bgimage, works fine if the image is repeated normally.

I changed the url http://www.interquess.com/test/ a bit (made it even simpler...)

There's more discussion about this at http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web/..._20860329.html

So far nothing more but a bug...

The answer found! Having background-color as well does the trick...

background-color: #fff; background-image:url(bgimage.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x;
