Although I made a right ccs-string in Stationery for MS Office 2003/
Outlook-mails the background image repeats, repeats, repeats ......

Who can helps? Here is the string:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>UFM_Briefpapier</TITLE>

<STYLE type=text/css>
body
{
background-image:
url('UFM.gif');
background-repeat:
no-repeat;
background-attachment: fixed ;
background-position:
top-left;
}
</STYLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>

can you paste a link to original page that is not displaying correctly?

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>UFM_Briefpapier</TITLE>
<STYLE type=text/css>
body {
background-image: url('colt.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-attachment: fixed ;
background-position: top-left;

Thks for your fast answer. I'm a little bit confused that your string is
working. I learned from other dicussion members that my problem arises in MS
Office 2003 only. Which version do you have?

Here are some more informations regarding the problem:

Please open OUTLOOK/TOOLS/OPTIONS/MAIL FORMAT. Here you can create your own
WALLPAPER in HTML. The code and the background-image you will find in
PROGRAMMS/..../MICROSOFT SHARED/STATIONERY.

In the HTML-coding you have to say (by CSS/Style) that the background-image
shall not repeat (background-image: no repeat). But this work absolutly not
in MS OFICCE 2003. I learned from other dicusssion members, that my (and
your) string is fine working in MS OFFICE except in 2003. The problem could
be that the mails in OUTLOOK MS OFFICE 2003 are created via WORD 2003. But up
to now I find no solution which solves the problem of repeating the
background-image in MAIL FORMAT.

brrr.... i'm very sorry! i acted like a foolish one.
i just put the code in explorer and it worked but in office 2003 not. in
outlook express it is ok.
I even replaced their picture with my ones, and it is repeting. I see only
one "escape" here: make the picture width and height biger, so the user will
not see it because of the resolution. the problem then will be the email
size...
can anyone else reproduce it? maybe in other office versions.
Thanks and sorry again, EMTI!
