Keeping bg images from repeating in Opera/Netscape

I have a background image I am wanting to use as the background in my menu, and it looks fine in IE (go figure) but the image wants to repeat in Nescape and Opera. I even tried controlling it with CSS as a NO-repeat image, but it still does. Does Opera require a certain code?

EDIT- I believe actually it is just netscape for the repeating background image, however, the text is larger in Opera and hence goes beyond the limits I wanted.

The link wont work for me

when you say your wanting it as a menu background, is the menu in a table, a div, a layer or something else?
how did you do the css no-repeat code?

hmmm. maybe my school server doesn't allow certain connections

The menu is in a table, with about 10 rows, but I have a background image set for the table. I just made a style that is called .menubg here is the code

.menubg {
background-image: url(images2/ssgbnew_r3_c1.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: left top;

oh, that was just chunk of the code, I wasn't giving the full thing, I was just showing you where the no-repeat thing was.

try pixels for the position
background-position: 10% 10%;

or whatever you have your margins to, if you want zero, just use 0 0
