View Full Version : CSS? Background image? Etc?

Okay, here's my dilemma..

As you can see by the mockup i've created - the body background requires a dashed border several pixels 'inside' the body. Now getting the dashed border was easy as pie, but how would i go about pushing it 'in' on the forum body.

I initally thought of doing it as a background image, but found that near impossible, so...

Any help with the CSS?

Heres where i stand now.

vertical align img 1 top
vertical align img 2 repeat y
vertical align img 3 bottom

Is this type of setup even possible?

Wouldn't it be easier to use the CSS border property?

Rough outline:

<body>
<div style="border:1px dashed #000000;">

</div>
</body>

You can then use the padding property to add space between the forums and the border (I think).

That's right. :) Padding is inside, Margin is outside.
