Forum:Can I Insert New Div IDs on pages as standard?

I've been working on a skin for the wiki http://tlbbeu.wikia.com/ and I've needed to use multiple divs to insert different image backgrounds so that I can have a custom side image cascading along the y-axis, for example, allowing a flexible page width.

The problem is.. I simply can't find all the divs I require. Here's a portion of what I've got so far:

border-width: 7px; border-image: url(http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100612161052/tlbbeu/images/4/46/Border.png) 7 repeat; -moz-border-image: url(http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100612161052/tlbbeu/images/4/46/Border.png) 7 repeat; -webkit-border-image: url(http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100612161052/tlbbeu/images/4/46/Border.png) 7 repeat;background: url(http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100719175744/tlbbeu/images/9/9f/Page_fillbg.png); background-repeat: repeat-xy; }
 * 1) wikia_page {

border-width: 10px; -moz-border-image: url(http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100719215830/tlbbeu/images/9/9d/Tlbb_border.png) 10 round; -webkit-border-image: url(http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100719215830/tlbbeu/images/9/9d/Tlbb_border.png) 10 round; border-image: url(http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100719215830/tlbbeu/images/9/9d/Tlbb_border.png) 10 round; background: url(http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100719174356/tlbbeu/images/0/04/Page_leftbg.png) left; background-repeat: repeat-y;
 * 1) article {

}

background: url(http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100719175557/tlbbeu/images/d/d7/Page_rightbg.png) right; background-repeat:repeat-y;
 * 1) bodyContent {

}

background: url(http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100719175557/tlbbeu/images/d/d7/Page_rightbg.png) right; background-repeat:repeat-y; }
 * 1) article h1 {

background: url(http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100719175557/tlbbeu/images/d/d7/Page_rightbg.png) right; background-repeat:repeat-y; height: 0.1px; }
 * 1) contentSub {

Ideally I'd be able to have something equivalent to #article and #wikia_page so I can add more background images, though I don't want to have to manually insert a new div ID into every page. Anyone got any ideas as to what I can do? BeardedBee 23:54, July 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * I would look through w:c:help:Help:Customizing_Monaco/skin. It should be pretty up to date. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 5:59 PM PST 19 Jul 2010

Cheers for the reply Fandyllic. I've looked through all the help pages I could find, and many wikia monacos. Sure that page is up-to-date but it is by no means expansive or explanatory enough. I need to customise the standard HTML for the my wiki it seems, though I'm not sure this is possible. BeardedBee 01:18, July 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * It is difficult to give you a useful answer, since your description of what you wanted was somewhat vague and the sample CSS you provided doesn't really help understand what you're trying to do. A mockup or maybe an example constructed of tables or something would help. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 9:24 AM PST 20 Jul 2010

I've uploaded a version of the page to an external website here:. What I'm trying to do is give the article area a background, though the sides (left + right, though not yet top or bottom) are custom backgrounds. To insert them I've had to use divs within the page as anchors for the background images, though I've run out of appropriate ones. BeardedBee 17:55, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

Any solution? -BeardedBee 19:51, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
