I need a repeated backgroung image on the left side of the portal

[Carlos5]

Hello everyone,

 

I'm still working on my site but have run into another problem. Hopefully I can explain it properly. I am using the portal template. I have created a .gif (about 6px high) that I would like to display (repeating to the bottom of the page) down the left side of my site. (so that the portal home and quicknav section are to the right of it.) I want the background color behind the portal home and quicknav to be different.

I guess I would normally do this using tables, i.e. put two cells beside each other underneath the top container but I can't figure out how to do that with the header.tpl or style.css

 

any ideas?

 

Thank everyone
