How do you keep a background from Tiling in FP

When I put a background on my website it tiles, I was told that FP has a
default that I need to take out, can anyone help with that?

You have to apply the background via CSS, as in:

<style>
body { background-image: url('images/photo.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat }
</style>

To do this through the GUI, first get rid of any background you configured
through Page properties and then:

1. Choose Style from the Format menu.
2. Set the List list-box to HTML Tags.
3. Select "body" in the Style list.
4. Click Modify, Format, Border.
5. Click the Shading tab.
6. Under Parterns, specify the picture you want and
set the Repeat drop-down list to no-repeat.

Caution: never depend on the background picture aligning precisely behind
your page layout. There are too many variations in browers, fonts, operating
systems, and so on.
