HTML background help

I want a fixed (watermark) vertically repeating background to float on the right side of the screen.

I'm already too far into the html to start over with css so I'd like to avoid that at all costs.

<body background="bkgrnd.gif"; background-attachment: fixed; background-repeat: repeat-y; bgcolor="#ffffff"; background-align="right">

That's the code, it works exactly how I want it to except it's on the left side of the screen instead of the right.

I've tried many variations of the "align" function but nothing's worked. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

this is seriously stupid. It is so simple with CSS.. what is more stupid on ur part is that the code you are using is completely malformed CSS used in the most standards-abusing way ever... [try validating it at any service]. Use CSS:

<body style="#FFFFFF background: url('whatever.gif') repeat-y fixed top left;">

OR

<body style="background-image: url('whatever.gif'); background-position: top left">

and for god sake:

Did you fix it?
If it didn't mess your page up to much, you could put the image as the background of a table, rather than the body. Then put the table in the right place.

Wow, every time I see this guy commenting on css it's negative abuse. Lighten up on him!


A good idea that I would do for a fixed background on the right would be this...

background-url: ('urlhere.png');
background-position: top right;
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-attachment: fixed;
