Your empty center tag will not center the background image. For that you
need to use CSS.

Conversation: small script question. need proper syntax
Subject: Re: small script question. need proper syntax

HI! thanks, that's what I wanted to know. the reason for the rez is that
I don't use a tillable image type. and I want only one centered image
that takes up the whole screen.

I don't want to check for the browser window for the above reason as I
only create 4 separate image this way. ( Unless I am missing something,
that you see ) :)

If you have an example of checking the browser window I would like to
see it.

Thanks very much for the response,
