Four cornered web page

How do you add four different backgrounds as corners to your web page?
The answer is below. It even work in IE. You will have to create your own corner images.

See demo.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>4 corners</title>
<!--[if IE]>
<script src="http://html5shim.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/css/reset/reset.css" />
<style>
#topLeft, #topRight, #bottomLeft, #bottomRight
{
position:absolute;
width:100%;
height:100%;
}
#topLeft
{
background:url(topLeftCorner.png) no-repeat left top;
z-index:-10;
}
#topRight
{
background:url(topRightCorner.png) no-repeat right top;
z-index:-9;
}
#bottomLeft
{
background:url(bottomLeftCorner.png) no-repeat left bottom;
z-index:-8;
}
#bottomRight
{
background:url(bottomRightCorner.png) no-repeat right bottom;
z-index:-7;
}
#mainContent, h1
{
padding:2em;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<section id="topLeft"></section>
