I am to accomplish what I want, in safari and firefox, but IE isn't buying it.

I have this style to tile the background for all the content.

.content{
background:#fff url('/images/content_tile.gif') repeat-y top left;
width:966px;
height:100%;
background:middle;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
border:1px solid #e6e3da;
}

I'll give you the web address of the work in progress website.

css file: http://herkimer.livebrad.com/css/screen.css

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Are you aware that you are missing a DOCTYPE and <head></head> tag? You'll want to add those first and re-test it in IE.
