# Post title background

 * I am putting a color background around post titles in a redesign I am working
   on. I am having no luck at all getting the background color to extend the length
   of the window it’s in. I have played with background repeat and background position,
   but I always end up with <h3> tags that only have the color background to the
   last letter of the title. I really want this colored background to extend the
   length of the window it’s in, and to automatically resize when the browser window
   gets resized. I looked all morning and tried everything, but I need a hand on
   this simple fix.
    Thanks in advance.

 * you need to give a link to the page, otherwise it is pure speculation what we
   can tell you.

 * I just checked in FF2 and in IE6 and both show a colored background extending
   to the right sidebar and automatically resize with the window. You might want
   to clear your cache and then view your site again.
    _ The link I was looking 
   at was the one in your profile, aventhusiast.com if this isn’t correct post the
   right link.

 * That’s my current theme. I’ll activate the unfinished theme so you guys can take
   a look.
    Oh, and thank you, I really appreciate the help.

 * Remove this from your stylesheet
 *     ```
       .itemhead h3 {
       display: inline;
       }
       ```

 * Hi all. I’m kind of having the same problem…the site is [http://www.spotfellas.com](http://www.spotfellas.com),
   but I JUST starting working on it, so it’s nowhere near finished (new to WP and
   PHP btw).
 * I’m using a theme that I found on WP and I also created a custom home page. The
   thing is that when I make my browser window smaller, all the text moves on the
   new custom home page, but the background image stays stagnant, so things don’t
   line up the way I want them to.
 * What I basically want to know is how can I have it so that ALL the pages on my
   site automatically resize so that everything like the background image will still
   be completely visible? For example, on my 3 other pages, I lose the SpotFellas
   logo at the top when I make the pages smaller.
 * Thank you in advance.
