border attribute with background image? (CSS)

[Jake Bunce]

I can't make it work and I can't find any documentation that says it's possible. Am I going to have to nest tables to make this work?

[Zachery]

I dont think you can put a border around a background image, you can have a border part of a class but it will go along the outside of an element

[Jake Bunce]

I mean the border attribute, not a border.

Like in the tborder class in vB3:

border: 1px solid #BF9C39;

I want a background image instead of the color.

[Zachery]

Ah, no you cannot have an image as a border that im aware of.

[Jake Bunce]

Well booger. I have like 6 nested tables already so I don't want to add another. :p

Try this attribute.

background-image:url(URI);

I'm not sure this is what you are looking for.
And this is a sample : http://www.skelm.com/test/test.html

I tried that but it didn't work for table borders.

[tantei3]

Table...OK.
Would you use CSS border instead of HTML border for tables?

He wants an image as his border...

[tantei3]

Oh! I see. But that's impossible.

[Jake Bunce]

I did it using an outer table with a background image and a cellspacing of 1.

Could you please tell us where and how you did this background container?
