What you want is a div that is absolutely positioned in the root of your body tag with the "posi<b></b>tion: absolute" CSS, then you want to adjust the actual position on the screen by playing around with pixel values in the "top: #px" and "left: #px" CSS. Throw those transparent images in the DIV and you'll be good to go on that. As far as making that border a solid 1px line, I'm not really sure what you're currently using to produce that thick line, but I'd just set a "border-top: 1px solid black" in the CSS for the gray element just below it.
