Hi

I've been trying to figure out why my repeat-y images don't work in Internet Explorer however works fine in any other browsers.

I am still trying to learn css and xhtml please help me resolve this matter...




My CSS:
@charset "utf-8";
* {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
body {
background-color: #CCCCCC;
}

a:link { color: #ffffff;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited {text-decoration: none;}
a:hover {color: #b23937;}
a:active {text-decoration: none;}

#wrapper {
width: 1151px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
border-right-width: thin;
border-left-width: thin;
border-right-style: solid;
border-left-style: solid;
border-right-color: #999999;
border-left-color: #999999;
}
#wrapper #logo {
height: 120px;
width: 1151px;
}
#wrapper #navigation {
background-image: url(../images/nav.home.gif);
height: 32px;
}
#wrapper #navigation #navlabel {
color: #FFFFFF;
padding-top: 5px;
padding-left: 125px;
}
#wrapper #navigation #navlabel #nav li {
display:block;
width:100px;
float:left;
list-style:none;
}
#wrapper #header {
height: 391px;
background-image: url(../images/welcome.jpg);
}
#wrapper #mainContent {
height: 384px;
background-image: url(../images/maincontent.jpg);
width: 1151px;

}

#wrapper #bodyArea {
background: url(../images/bg_bodyarea.jpg) repeat-y;

}
#wrapper #bodyArea #mainContent #content {
display:block;
width:400px;
float:left;
}
#wrapper #bodyArea #mainContent #contentwrapper {
padding-left: 140px;
padding-top: 70px;
}


#wrapper #bodyArea #footer {
background-image: url(../images/footer.jpg);
height: 73px;
clear: both;
}
