The background image on the right item of my horizontal main menu has the right uppoer and lower corners rounded. The text for that item needs about 150 pixels, since I don't want it to wrap. However, since the bgimage is only 100 pixels wide, it repeats to fill the space, continuing the bgimage past the rounded corners on the right.
I would rather not edit the image itself. Is there a way to expand the bgimage to the left to fill the 150 pixels, keeping the right side of the image with the rounded corners all the way to the right? I tried bgimagealign=right, but that didn't work.

but taking it a futher step by using milonic's own example. amazone tab style.

using IE6.0
the image for "mymilonic" is tileing so you see something like...
(mymilonic)((search)
note the extra bracket or rather image tiling.
i don't want the image to tile. i want it to look like....
(mymilonic)(search)
note one less bracket / no tiling of the image.
---------------------
is there a way to have 4 set of images???
first image. being ( "only used once and that is left side of a horzontil menu"
2nd image. being }{ "used between 2 menu items"
3rd image. being } "only used once and that is right side of a horzontile menu"
4th image. being a filler between { and }{ and }{ and }. this image would auto expande to fill width needed.
or rather the 4 image would either tile or the width of the image would automatically be set so it filles in the entire width needed for the given menu item text.
