How to add background image on iphone Navigation bar?

I am looking for a way to have a custom navigation bar and need to have a custom navigation bar background to achieve this. I was looking around for how to do this, but could not find a solution. If anyone has the solution, help is much appreciated.

You can just add a subview (a UIImageView) to the navaigationBar, which is just a UIView subclass.

UINavigationBar nb = [[UINavigationBar alloc]init];
[nb addSubview: foo];
[nb release];
