Hi

Im not all new to HTML but im still learning.
Im having a issue with my footer it wont stretch out.

Here's a image: http://i.imgur.com/JZx0V.png

And here's the CSS Code

#footer {
    color: #ffffff;
    margin: 0;  padding: 0;
    float: right;
    background: #000000 url(foot.png) repeat center top;
    width: 1500px;
}

I been strugglin with this soon 3 hours, so i really need some help
Thanks in advance.

If the picture itself is say, 1px, then do not apply a width of 1500px. You should use:

#footer {background-repeat:repeat-x;}

If the #footer style is being applied to a div, the div would take up 100% of the space within its parent container.

Thanks for the replies
When i try repeating the thing with x or y
the footer image either disapers or just stays in the same frame.

Its like the wrapper stop it from strecthing out not sure.
Look when i Mark all of it

The line is perfect from where the Footer stops from strecthing out.
