Before I go down this road I would like to make sure cmsms css and template gurus here agree the idea below is sound and won't result in extreme contortions of code.

I have java script that will rotate an image as often as I specify. I want to place that image to the right of my header banner on http://www.matxainetxea.com. That banner has a photo on the left side. The idea is to have a bookends effect by placing another image on the right side of the banner. I have the current header image defined as the cms ms stylesheet comments suggest by using the background: url() property.  However I find that CSS2 does not support multiple background images. Should I just can the idea of using css images for my multiple image banner and just do it via html in the template?

This is not a CMS topic.

If you can put together a simple .html and .css file that will reproduce the effect that you want, then it can be done in CMS Made Simple.

Try it out there.

oh, I've done it before, calguy. Just no in cms ms, so excuuuuuse me. I thought the topic here was "layout and design" as applied in cms ms.

What I plan to do is pull the banner jpg out of the css and put in in the template header where I can place it next to the second image.  I just thought I'd see if otehrs more familiar with cms ms agree this is the best approach.

I believe what calguy was saying is if it can be done in a normal HTML web page/template it can be done with CMSMS...

The thing with using CMSMS is you just take a template/page and replace hard coded 'Content' with the {content} tag, replace your hard coded menu with the {menu} tag, simplified instructions but you get the idea....
