..I'm writing it in Notepad, viewing it on Outlook express, the background doesn't fill the browser window, therefore repeating itself! Does anyone know the code to change the size of the image? What would be the average size for a background in a browser? Thanks. EC XX

Are you adding a background colour, or a background image? Also, is this pure HTML, or are you using CSS? In HTML, i'd guess you might be able to do height="100%" width="100%" on the image. Though it'd obviously be stretched with the resulting loss of quality. Generally, though, the better background images are those that tile well, if only because they give a more uniform colour, so the text is easier to read.
Finally, i'd advise against using Outlook to test HTML pages...

As extracted from http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_bodybgimg
Both gif and jpg files can be used as HTML backgrounds.
If the image is smaller than the page, the image will repeat itself.
