I have an HTML email with a <td> of dynamic height but fixed width.
How can I add a (vertically) repeating background-image to this cell that works in Outlook 2007, 2010, 2013 and Gmail as well?
The cell doesn’t have any content in it, since it is “just” for visual purposes. But it is next to my content cell and thus needs to be dynamic in height.
It seems that there is no way of achieving repeated background images in Outlook 2007/2010 and 2013.
Here are the previews of JFK’s test: http://www.emailonacid.com/app/acidtest/viewresult/nWC9hJ5N0BvkZIk4Zvz724rMQm19MUsCJ0shOIFcWgGMh. Unfortunately it doens’t work either.
CampaignMonitor has a very useful guide on HTML and CSS support in different clients: http://www.campaignmonitor.com/css/
If you only need a fixed size background image in Outlook 2007/2010 and 2013, VML objects might help you: https://www.campaignmonitor.com/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=14197
