A CSS question here; Is it possible to have multiple background images? If so, how? For example, 1 image diplayed at the top-right, another at the bottom-right, and the last repeated along the y-axis at the right.
Thank you! ^.^

i can think of how to do two. try declaring an id or class on the body tag
ie<body id="...">or<body class="...">
and in your css:
body.(name) pr body#(name) {
background:url(...) no-repeat top right;
}
etc, in addition to your regular body { background... } - i havent tried this, so im not sure if it will work entirely. hope that helps. (be sure to check the documentary on those tags)

Hmm.. so, if I were trying to implement this on the Post div, I should encapsulate THAT in another div? I'll give it a spin!

No, you can't have multiple background images. Use the top-right image in the header, bottom-right in the footer, and the last repeating one in the background like:
'background: url(yourImage.jpg) repeat-y;'
Just make the background image wide (ie 1600x50) and place the pattern/image that you want to repeat where you want it to appear. -

I'd recommend simply using multiple div layers, so something like the following:
body { background: url(images/top_left.png) top left no-repeat; }
div.topbotright { background: url(images/botright.png) bottom right no-repeat; }
div.repeater { background: url(images/repeater.png) repeat-y; }
Then in your markup, simply add the div's, in that order, wrapping all of your code (with of course, adding paddings and margins of 0 on all of that), and you should be ready to go.
I wouldn't try for anything where you could declare both all of them in the same tag, because that would surely lower your browser compatibility. -

I got it! Thank you! I hadn't realised that that onion-skinning technique could be applied! *'.'*

I hadn't realised that the effect is screwed on the IE, and MSN Explorer; I'd leave it at that, but majority of my viewers use these browsers. Any way for a work-around? Thank you! The site
