Can I make background no repeat without styles?

I know that body background is deprecated in favor of using a style BUT I have a need to write a very old school html version of a business card type of Outlook 2007 "signature". Styles seem to not be recognizable when following the method for an html signature in Outlook so I first went way back to tables and loose images and background colors etc which worked but it would be a lot nicer if I could use a background image on the body tag.
So I am trying to get just one background image with no repeat using plain old html and no styles.
I can do it with  this code but it repeats.      <body background="Email-Sig-bkg.jpg">
This did not stop the repeating either         <body bgproperties=fixed background="Email-Sig-bkg.jpg">
I saw one post that said it can not be done without styles or css.
Can anyone confirm so that I give up searching?
here is a link to the signature done WITH styles but which now must be re coded with no styles.  The text areas must be editable in outlook 2007 when added as a "signature"

    Where are you located?
    Just go and buy an iTunes gift card at any store in your country.
    Then follow all the steps you did, but when it asks you for the credit card number, there shoujld be a GIFT CARD option which will let you load your account witht eh funds form the gift card without providing a credit/debit card #.

    Hello, aligt9p. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    To create an Apple ID without a credit card, there is a specific series of steps that have to be processed in order to allow the payment to be set as none on creation of the account.
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Why can’t I select None when I edit my payment information?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5366
    If the specific steps have not been processed, a credit or debit card will be required to complete the setup the account.
    However, it can be removed and payment method changed to none as long as there is not an outstanding balance.

  • Can You Make A Good Song Without a Mic?

    im a 14 year old rapper who's career is based on garageBAND.
    well i was wondering,  can you make a good song without a mic..
    i think i have done pretty good without one.
    www.myspace.com/thereallilsilk
    but also you can tell the difference.
    but if i do get a mic (eventually)
    do you recommend me getting a USB mic, because i heard all you have to do is plug it in, set it up and your on your way...

    You say it yourself: A mic would greatly improve your sound. USB is a way to go, as you say, you just plug it in and don't have to go for a pre-amp or audio interface. Don't get one of the very cheap ones that might be okay for spoken conversations. The Samson C01U is a good condenser mic that you should get for around $ 80.

  • Somehow I created a live copy of "Finder" on my desktop.  It is titled "iPhoto Library", and has live copies of all of my files/photos/music.  How can I make it go away without deleting all of my content?

    Somehow I created a live copy of "Finder" on my desktop.  It is titled "iPhoto Library", and has live copies of all of my files/photos/music.  How can I make it go away without deleting all of my content?

    Either you moved or copied your iPhoto library folder to the Desktop.
    Quit iPhoto. Rename the folder on your Desktop to something else, such as "foo." Launch iPhoto. If you still see all your photos, you can delete "foo."
    If you don't see your photos, quit iPhoto, rename "foo" to "iPhoto Library," and put it in your Pictures folder. Try iPhoto again.

    How can I create a iTunes account without a Credit card?

    Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

  • How can I make a drive bootable without losing data on it?

    Is there a way to make a second internal drive bootable without losing the data that is already on it?
    The second drive was created under Panther 10.3.9. My main internal drive has had a clean install of Tiger 10.4.3. The second drive used to appear in the start up disk list when I was running 10.3.9 on the main drive. That is, it used to be bootable under 10.3.9. No kidding. After the main drive was given a clean install of Tiger, the second drive disappeared from the start up disk list. Please note: the second drive remains completely accessible when I am running off the main drive in 10.4.3. I can even use the few applications I had placed on the drive. It appears as separate drive under disk utility.
    I assume the second drive was installed as slave. (Both it and the main drive were independently bootable under 10.3.9.) It is not locked. "Ignore ownership" is not checked. The system has read-write privileges. Admin has read-write all others are read only. I am the only person who has access to this machine. It is not networked.
    I tried to ask this question a few days ago, but I think the way I phrased it confused the issue. My real question is NOT how did this get like this? It is can I make a drive bootable when it already has data on it?
    Thanks
    G4 Panther & Tiger   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply.
    You replied:
    the drive that you cannot
    boot from is a separate physical hard drive from the
    internal drive with 10.4.3. Is that correct?
    Yes.
    Have you used System Preferences > Startup Disk and
    looked to see if the 10.3.9 system shows up there?
    Yes, I have looked and it's not there.
    I got the impression that you have backed up the 10.3.9
    disk and that you do not really need the data there.
    Yes, I backed up a drive that was bootable, but then it lost its "bootabilty" and what I got was two non-bootable drives--the original second internal drive that I'm asking about and the back-up of it. I want the data on the drive and I wan the drive to be bootable.
    One thing that you might try when you are booted off
    your 10.4.3 system is to use Disk Utility, select the
    other disk and do a Repair Disk.
    Done that and it says there is no problem. Nada. Zero. It just won't boot, no more, no how, no way. BUT it remains fully accessible--I can access all my info. It's just become a storage drive that cannot be booted. Go figure.
    reformatting means
    destroying the data on the disk.
    Yup, which is why I asked my original question. Does anyone know if there is any way to make a drive bootable without destroying the data on it?
    I suspect the answer is no (given these particulars), but I thought some wise super-techie out there might have a trick up their sleeve.

  • Can i make PDF presentation 'repeat' on Adobe Acrobat X Pro?

    Hi!
    Im a new here, and i have little problem which i hope you can help me.
    So i must do PDF-presentation which repeat after last page. So when the presentation goes last page it must jump first page, and start presentation again. But i cant find where i can do that trick. So could anyone here help me with that problem? Im using Adobe Acrobat X Pro software. So how i can make presentation repeat, or need i some other software?
    I have tried make Action Wizard new action on "document processing" tab and there "set open options" that makes presentation "single page continous", but that dont make presentation to repeat. So i do something wrong, or that is wrong place where i try do that.
    So im little bit stuck with that, and need advices.
    Thanks!

    You can define a Page Action for the last page in the document, and make it reset to page 0. Right-click a page in the thumbnails panel on the left, choose Properties, then Actions.
    To avoid missing the last page and messing about with timing code, the simple fix is to add a blank page to the end of the document, and give it a 'Page Open' action of "Go to a page View" which moves to your first page.
