I wan't a non-repeating picture-background for text to go over, and I want to also have the color black to match the said background. I used this. STEVE IS A BIG FAT TOOL[/code] The problem: It works fine in IE Explorer: The red paint strokes over a black background, and then theres my text. In Firefox, just a plain black background. I put quotes around the location, BUT NOW (MOTHERFUCKINGFUCK) Firefox puts it over a white background, which obviously looks like shit. Why is it doing this and how can I make it STOP? :\|

According to my friend, it looks the same in both Firefox and IE. I DIDN'T FIGURE THIS OUT. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S GOING ON. I HATE HTML.

(Apparently you meant forgot to add the correct/incorrect comparison.) I guess your default bg color is black in IE and white in Firefox. So you need to specify the background color explicitly by tacking on "black" or "#000". Example: background: url(http://www.windizzy.com/~steve/layout/background.gif) no-repeat #000; [/code]

So you need to specify the background color explicitly by tacking on "black" or "#000". I have read and notice other people having this problem too, about it looking good on firefox but not IE. Even though I barely started to wet my feet on HTML, I will definitely take a note on this in the future when I start messing with HTML like this.
