real_illusions Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Your pretty much asking for the impossible.Multiple backgrounds are in CSS3 and are only supported in Safari and FF3.6 as far as i know (not sure on Chrome or Opera 10.5).The ability to write text onto images - you can using PHP but i think its kinda resource hungry (not sure on that tbh), but would require more work to be done by the server compared to just writing the text onto the image in an image editing program.You can just write text in plain old html and stick that on the page, and that will appear over the background images.Hope that helps.

I was going with the idea of just adding as many folders as I need based on the info, but the way I wanted it seems to not work. guess what I could do is either create a table and give the table the background of the folders, so I can just type in there and try to lign up the text as needed using css, OR I can just make another pic with both folders side by side, and have it repeat vertically as many times as info is needed ?any benefits for one idea over the other ?
