background-repeat-y | CSS CSS Properties

A non-standard (but widely supported) property that specifically controls whether a background image repeats vertically. It is usually easier to use the standard 'background-repeat' property instead.

Quick example

body {
  background-repeat-y: repeat;
  /* explicitly forces vertical repeat only (mostly for legacy compatibility) */
}
