Well, the other option would be once the page is loaded to round all elements of your page, pick the ones with a background-image and regexp them to submission. I'd advise against this solution though, on the grounds that :
- it's not really simpler than adding a background-image correcting stylesheet - there'd be images flickering while loading - if you've got AJAX (and with CakePHP I bet you do have AJAX) you'll have to trigger that after every AJAX call On the other hand, having an alternate css turning up only on this part of the site would be really easy, you can even use it with the standard stylesheet and only change background-image properties as long as the targets are the same as in the standard sheet and you put the link to the alternate stylesheet after the standard.
