Hi,

I have a problem with a background image being scaled down by opera. The
image is larger (520x320) than the div (250x150 maybe) - this is because we
want to minimize the number of hits on the server and put all backgrounds in
one graphic.

instead of displaying it in full size and chopping the rest off, Opera
scales it down so I get a miniature of the image.

Does anyone know of this bug or have a solution to this problem?

Cheers
Andreas

Are you specifying the 'handheld' media type for your stylesheets? Without
that, Opera will apply its small-screen rendering to make the page adapt
to the screen.
