FWIW: I don't know why you should wait either, but I'm too pragmatic to bother with what you didn't ask for :-) A cross-browser alternative, without tables and CSS3, might look like this... http://www.gunlaug.no/tos/alien/bpj/test_09_0126.html ...and I wouldn't even call it a fake. regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no __ 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/

You can - and probably should - use a simple 'nested divs' technique until support for border-image is more widely adopted: http://www.fiveminuteargument.com/nested-divs Of course, if you don't mind older browsers not seeing a 'border image' at all, a fallback border colour is perfectly acceptable. - Bobby __ 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/

Why wait? It appears to be a personal site, and you state front-and-center that the only browser you are supporting is Firefox, so why not use go ahead and *use* border-image, check it in Safari, and wait for Firefox to catch up? It seems to me that like it would be a hassle and a hack to try and fake the effect you want with a background image. Why go to all that trouble when you could work simpler and be ahead of the game in the long run? http://www.css3.info/preview/border-image/ Erika __ 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/

If it is indeed a personal site, why wait indeed ? Play with border image, it is supported by Safari 3.1+ and by Firefox 3.1b2+. Use a border as fall back for other browsers (maybe border: 3px double orange). See this example: http://dev.l-c-n.com/css3/border-image4.html complete with box-shadow, semi transparent backgrounds and what more... :-) 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/
