Hi,

I have included an image of what I am trying to accomplish.

Basically I need some advice on how to set up the CSS for setting up the background and a expandable text area.

Could you post the code you've got now?

Hi,

thanks for the quick reply. This is what I have been trying out.

it does not work and I am concerned about getting the text to work. I am also wondering if this is the best approach?

Inside content2 is where the text area and images will be.


#content {
float: right;
width: 625px;
}
#content1 {
	width: 625px;
	height: 204px;
	background-image: url(images/image_01.png);	
}
#content2 {
	width: 625px;
	background-image: url(images/image_02.png);
	background-repeat: repeat-x;
}
#content3{
	width: 625px;
	height: 193px;
	background-image: url(images/image_03.png);
}

Hi,

Anybody have any idea?

I would slice it differently.

I would take your red band there, take a 1px horizontal slice (or just get the correct #colour), centre it and repeat it y down the page.

Then I would build your boxes over it. This means you dont have to worry about alot of issues I could see happening...

Other than that it would be great to have your current site linked so we could see live code - its easyer for us to help that way.
