Hey guys, I'm redoing the layout of my website. I'm trying to do everything in divs (instead of tables), and there's one situation I don't know how to get around: a variable-sized box with a graphical border and graphical corners.

This is what I'm doing right now, and although the images will probably change, I'm interested in using this kind of background.

	A bunch of text. Stretches nicely. Just a bunch of gif images.

This is a 3x3 table with the content being in the center. I used HTML for this background, but that's not the issue, since I would do it in CSS if I did it this way.

So my question is, can this same type of background be done without tables, and without using 8 divs or so?
