background-repeat: repeat-y; not working

I'm quite new to CSS and for sure I'm missing something basic here but I really can't figure it out. This is the code:

In HTML I have this:

Code:
<div class="tab-left"></div>

In CSS:

Code:
.tab-left {
    background-image: url(images/left.png);
    background-repeat: repeat-y;
    position: absolute;
    width: 96px;
    height: 1049px;
    margin-left: -40px;
    z-index: 99999;
    }

However, the repeat-y property does not work. This is the site in question: <a href="http://ziontouch.com/wordpress/" rel="nofollow">http://ziontouch.com/wordpress/</a>

What am I doing wrong?
