I haven't had any problems in NN4 with the background repeat property. 
The only problem I have had is if I'm trying to use the background 
image in a <td> and the image in question is a .gif. It seems to do 
better if the image is a .jpg. And NN4 doesn't like background images 
at all if they are defined relative to the stylesheet. They seem to 
have to be relative to the page.
