I need to add a new div which will contain all the page content. This is because I need to have two background images on all pages. What is the best way to acheive this?
I need
<body>
<div id="myDiv">
....all the current page html...
</div>
</body>
Will the existing CSS still work and how can I do this in a supported way? I have my own theme/template running so can use the overrides system.
Thanks.

Re: need to add a div on all pages, best way?
Hmmm, actually the file "tpl_main_page.php " is not located in the folder of any of my templates. For sure (I triple-checked) the only contents are:
1) "css" folder
2) "images" folder
3) template_info.php
What can I modify to add an extra div page container?

The name 'YOUR_TEMPLATE' have to be replaced with the name of your template folder. For the classic temaplte it is 'classic'. If you have installed another template, the name is different. Read the tutorial about the override system to understand the folder structure.

Re: need to add a div on all pages, best way?
Just like you have created YOUR_TEMPLATE/css/stylesheet.css, you can create YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_main_page.php as Tino has suggested. You can mirror anything from includes/templates/template_default in your own includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE folder, and customize as desired. You don't currently have a "common" folder simply because you haven't yet changed anything. The beauty of the Zen Cart override system is that you only have to create things as you need to change them.
