Does anyone know if its possible to create a border with an image? For example: Instead of having to choose between solid, dottted, dashed, groove etc... border:1px solid #000; You have border: 1px (image) ; I asked someone earlier and they told me it was only possible in CSS3...i have no idea what that is.
CSS3 is the next version of CSS. I do not know if it will have image borders though, sorry. Maybe look at this: http://battletech.hopto.org/html_tutorials/eightcorners/template.html
^ that's the easy way. If your border is more complex, then you'll actually need to fake it. You'll have images (or background images) on each side of the "box". I have laying on the table a plan to make a kids' site (for our company mascot... basically shameless promotion of our company) where there would be "borders" made up of cats (cartoons drawn by me). Some of them were planned to be actual HTML images while others could exist as backgrounds for other elements. It really really depends on how fancy these images are and how big the "box" is. Deathshadow's shadow border thing works nice but it's one single image which is pretty much the same from one end to the other. If that border were made up of cats, or whatever, then I dunno that you could use that method.
