But how ??? ought to work if you use <body background="filename"> <dtml-var filename> returns a full <img src=".. tag when 'filename is an image. Check the source of the generated html.. probably looks like this the way you made it : <body background="<img src="filename">> or something similar.. You do not have to tell the browser there is an image coming. <body background="" does that just fine -- Geir B Hansen web-developer/designer geirh@funcom.com http://www.funcom.com
