[vB4] Adding <div> before BODY

[foxtrialer]

Hi guys. I`m trying to re-style my old vbulletin style for a new version. But i`m a little bit confused, can`t find what i want.
As i see:
html {
background: #fff;
}
This will make background white, its ok, but i need to put image right after this layer, it`s header image, & its width 1900 px, so i can`t put it in <div class="above_body">.

Plz help me ,how to realize this?

You can add a background image into a background tag:

html {
background:#ffffff url(images/my_image.png) no-repeat scroll left center;
}

thnx but it`s not what i want to do.
html will use image, not only #fff, & this is a main problem, coz i can`t add image over it

I'm not sure exactly what you want, but have you read Don's blogs? vB4: Skinning Your Forum in 10 Easy Steps and StyleVar Visual Dictionary for Forum, Blog, and CMS (PDF Documents) Those are a bit behind (I think things have changed a bit since 4.0 Gold), but they may help. You may also want to post at vb.org in the Graphics help forum.

Neither do I know exactly what the OP wants to achieve, but what he implies in the thread title is just not possible (having a div before body). That's as invalid as it gets.

It looks to me like you may need to edit the header template to get something like what you are showing (could be something as simple as adding a div after the body tag, closed in the footer right about the closing body tag). You *may* be able to play with the css to get that, but I haven't tried anything like that. If you have firebug, you can play with your css that way.
