Stretching a graphic to 100% width

home page

[Flolondon]

i am trying to do an image for the background of my home page and i want the image to stretch the whole page so that no colour white is left. How is the best approach to dealing with this issue.. i prefer to use pixels rather than percentage and i am using fireworks for my image png... please help

Background images do not accept dimensions, they are url-only and display in their native size (and then tile if you've allowed that). So you need to create an image that's big enough to do the coverage you require.

Is the image a single colour? If so, you can use the repeat command.
