I have a page that uses a background image to do rounded corners, and in IE8 on Windows XP the background image repeats.

It looks right in other browsers and even in "Compatability View" in IE8.

Does anyone know how to remove the repetion? I'm stumped!

JQuery UI sortable is slow in IE8, but works good in IE7 and IE8 compatible mode
