yes yes, i know. but that will break my background image. that's what i 
was trying to say before: the only reason i used overflow:hidden is that 
it somehow made the bg work (what i'm talking about visually is that the 
main/middle section of that vertical silver divider line).

i see now that this was the wrong way to get the image to tile; what's 
the right way?

thanks!
