title: Making a background-color repeat only horizontally using CSS
body: <p>I'm specifying a color hex code as the <code>background-color</code> of a really long div. However, i'd like this color to be only repeated horizontally, from left to right, in the first part of the  and not go down any further.</p>
  
  <p>Can that be done using <code>background-repeat:repeat-y</code> or is there another method?</p>
