border

Hi to everybody.

I need to do a border for my website that looks like this one. The only way I know is to split the website with 9 div, such :

1 2 3

4 5 6

7 8 9

and create 8 images, respectively:

top-left (on 1)
top central (on 2)
top-right (on 3)
left (on 4)
right (on 6)
bottom-left (on 7)
bottom-center (on 8)
bottom-right (on 9)

The div 5 is attempt as main. But the whole strategy looks not so well-formed. Any tips? Thanks
