float: right;
clear: left;
background: url(images/sidebarbg.jpg);
}
#sidebartop{
width: 131px;
float: right;

background: url(images/sidebartop.jpg);
}
#sidebarbottom{
width: 131px;
float: right;

A whole 5 hours, eh? :p
Anyway, just wrap all your divs up inside another div, like so: <div id="sidebar">
<div class="top"></div>
<div class="body">
test
</div>
<div class="bottom"></div>
</div>#sidebar {
width: 131px;
float: right;
}
#sidebar .top {
height: 20px;
background: url(images/sidebartop.jpg);
}
#sidebar .body {
background: url(images/sidebarbg.jpg);
}
#sidebar .bottom {
height: 20px;
background: url(images/sidebarbottom.jpg);
} |

I'd put them in an enclosing div, like this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<style>
#enclose{
width: 132px;
float: right;
clear: left;
height: 100%;
}
#sidebarbg{
width: 130px;
clear: left;
background: url(images/sidebarbg.jpg);
}
#sidebartop{
width: 130px;
clear: left;
height: 20px;
background: url(images/sidebartop.jpg);
}
#sidebarbottom{
width: 130px;
clear: left;
height: 20px;
background: url(images/sidebarbottom.jpg);
}
</style>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="enclose" style="border: 2px solid #00ff00;">
<div id="sidebartop" style="border: 2px solid #ff0000;">Top
</div>
<div id="sidebarbg" style="border: 2px solid #ffff00;">
Center
</div>
<div id="sidebarbottom" style="border: 2px solid #0000ff;">Bottom
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html> And if those sorry volunteer suckers didn't respond within 5 hours on a Sunday, I'd demand my money back!!!

LOL! Your post wasn't there when I went off to test it, and I didn't refresh the page!
