I want to put a different background on my contact us page and another one on the about us page. When I change the bg in the style it changes it for ALL pages. How can I do it for individual pages. Thanks in advance for any help

One way would be to take the CSS code that does the background out of the stylesheet and put it in the <head> section of each page as an inline style.

Something like this:

<style type="text/css">
body
{
  background: #000000;
  background-image: url('web6.jpg');
  background-repeat: repeat
}
</style>

Then you can individualize it for any page.

I'm sure there is more than one way to accomplish this.

This is only one method available to you.

If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

Another option would be to use the Simple Template System (STSv4.5.8) that allows you to template specific pages or all pages, infoboxes, etc.[img]http://forums.oscommerce.com/public/style_emoticons/default/thumbsup.gif[/img]
