Layering images in CSS - possible to put 2 images in same element?

Question

Supposing I\'m setting a background image for a web page in CSS like this:

body    {
font-size: 62.5%; /* Resets 1em to 10px */
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Sans         


        

Answer 1

Layered backgrounds are part of the CSS3 Working Draft but, as far as I know, support for them is limited to WebKit/KHTML-based browsers such as Safari, Chrome, Konqueror and OmniWeb.

Using your example code, this would look like:

body    {
    font-size: 62.5%; /* Resets 1em to 10px */
    font-family: Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;
    background-color: #9D5922;
    color: #000;
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0; 
    background: url("images/top.gif") left bottom repeat,
                url("images/desk.gif") left bottom repeat;
}
