This is tricky for me to explain but I will try...
I thought I just forgot this (solution by erik at bottom) and that it
would work but it's not. Putting a second div inside the wrapper div is
just like putting any other div inside the wrapper. That's the point of
the wrapper is to put other divs inside it...I need another background
image inside the wrapper and for other divs inside the wrap to stay on
top (overlap) of the second, bottom background image. Read my original
question again folks for more explanation.
Today I tried nesting the div (with the second wrapper background image)
inside the #wrapper.
This is closely the css I used:
#wrap {
position: relative;
width: 680px;
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: left;
background: #777 url(images/wrap_gradient.jpg) repeat-x 0 0;
}
#secondBG {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0; left: 0
width: 680px;
margin: 0;
background: url(images/second-bg.jpg) no-repeat bottom left;
}
I also tried adding position: relative to the #secondBG...I also tried
using z-index but I might have not done it correctly?
I dont have the exact code with me..This is a site Im building at work
and Im at home now.

I tried this thinking "duhh, i forgot this" but it doesnt work...or I'm
not doing it correctly.
