Curved backgrounds


I was wondering if anyone knew how to make a curved background on a website. I use Dreamweaver and Fireworks. I have been trying to figure it our for hours now and still cannot get it right. Any help would be appreciated.

blelisa, what do you mean by "curved backgrounds" actually? A sample screenshot might help us understand your issue...

I would guess it's like http://sincerelyyourdoula.com/ where the upper purpleish is needed. Go ahead and view the source and graphics from that page.

Basically what I did was draw the curve then break it up into slices so it can be displayed in pieces. A table was used to put it back together.
