So this is a little odd. I've got my theme set up to have a repeating image as a background (using CSS), and the background repeats as designed when I view the "Administer by task" page. But when I view "Administer by module" page, the image only displays once, then you see the page's background color until the bottom, where the footer image shows (exactly where it's supposed to).

I know it has something to do with the clear property in CSS. Looking at the page, I can see that "by task" has

, but in that same spot the "by module" page has just
.

Now I can change the core so that they're both the same, but I'd much prefer doing something in my theme to fix it, since any upgrades would require me finding the same thing in the next version and fixing that. Besides, there may be a reason of which I am unaware as to why the developers did this, and I don't want to screw anything up in the core of my install.

Anyone know how to fix this in CSS and/or my theme templates?
