This is an example of a page with a "left stripe" background. This is actually a short wide graphic with an image only on the left edge (see what the graphic actually looks like by itself).

Note that with this kind of border you need a way to keep the text out of the graphic area on the left edge. In this case, the attribute STYLE="margin-left: 90px" in the <BODY> tag is used (now view the HTML code for this page). Don't worry about what this means for now; it'll be covered in a later installment when we get to style sheets.
