To add something constructive to this thread, after thrashing your sources: You could accomplish what you want with multiple background images http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-background/#layering #notes { background: url(top-border-png) no-repeat top left, url(parchment-paper.png) repeat 50% 50% lime; } The first image is painted on top then the second one, etc. (the last one in my example also adds a fallback background-color) a sample test page: http://dev.l-c-n.com/CSS3_border-background/background-layering1.html Philippe --- Philippe Wittenbergh http://l-c-n.com/ ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
