lewisqic Posted November 18, 2007 Posted November 18, 2007 Hi All, I am trying to put a border on the sides of my shop only. Now, i have my shop centered and can easily put a border around the entire shop, but that is not what i want. I would like to have a border running down the entire left and right side of the shop only, with no border on the top or bottom of the shop. Also, i would ultimately like to be able to use an image for this border instead of just a solid line border, is that possible at all? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Warm Regards, Devin Lewis lewisqic

Velveeta Posted November 18, 2007 Posted November 18, 2007 Geoff is right, you'll want to control this stuff via the stylesheet, and you can specify different properties to selectively target border-left and border-right... However, I don't think that currently there's any kind of border-left/-right way to set an image for the border itself, like you can do with a div background or any other element's background image. It could be fudged using say, 2 side-by-side divs behind the store background, and floating the store over them, absolutely positioned and setting the z-index so it appears higher, and then setting the background of each of those divs to be the images you wanted on the left and right borders... That'd be kind of a pain in the ass though to accomplish this, but you could probably do it that way :D Richard. Hi All, I am trying to put a border on the sides of my shop only.
