Is it possible to make an image into a border? If so could anyone post it. I have tried "border-image: url();" and "border-color: url();", but they don't work. I would much appreciate anyones help.

Others correct me if I'm wrong.


No that is not possible.
You could however use some extra coding to create a 'border' of an image.

I think we had that question a week or two ago. There is a way, -but it's part of CSS-ver.3 and IE isn't even fully supporting css2 yet...
I guess one would have to 'tile fill' a div with the desired background image and have another DIV that is slightly smaller 'positioned' over it with appropriate margins, revealing the exposed edges of the background-image'd DIV beneith it... (sounds like a lot of fussy work to me for an effect that I could probably live without...)
