Everything else works in every browser, every OS, Mac and PC…

…but only AOL is screwing up my dropshadow background. I’ve attached a screenshot of how it should look versus how the AOL browser renders it.

here is the style:

```auto
.dropshadow {
	background-image: url(images/mqpens_drop_shadow_72dpi.jpg);
	background-repeat: repeat-y;
	background-position: left top;
	margin: 0px;
}

```

I applied the style like so:

```auto

<body class="dropshadow">

```

The drop shadow image is about 24px x 3200 pixels wide.

ANYONE KNOW WHAT’S UP HERE??

Thanks in advance…
