Background stretch with text in Firefox

[janetb]

I’m trying to go through examples out there and get a handle on stretching background images with an opacity text box overlaying the image. I have it working in IE7, IE6, and Firefox 2.0.0.16 with one weird little thing. In Firefox only, if I have the page designated as the home page or I hit refresh, the background image doesn’t appear – just a completely white page. If I have it as a link or highlight the url itself and hit enter, the background appears. Any ideas?

It’s pretty hideous – it’s a test, but here’s the url:

I’m not quite sure why this made a difference, but I cleared Firefox history and cache and now it comes up fine no matter what. ?????
