Bram, David, and all: I'm still not able to see the background on my table. I am using Netscape 4.5 so the browser shouldn't be an issue. It may be a case of garbled code elsewhere on the page. I would appreciate it if one of you could take the time (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-99, to lugnet.publish)

Hmmm...well after putting the background statement in all my left hand side table cells (sheepish grin)...it does indeed work. Originally I had only put the <BACKGROUND=""> statement in an empty <TD> cell. Of course, the result doesn't seem as nice (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-99, to lugnet.publish)

Thanks Dave - this does indeed solve the problem. My sidebar is now right on the top, left margin. I still don't have it going all the way to the bottom of the screen - but I suppose that's because my table isn't large enough. Any idea an\bout how I (...)

Add HEIGHT="100%" to your table tag. Just like WIDTH, you can set HEIGHT for a table and it will extend from the top of your page to the bottom. This will space each row out evenly though... as oppose to adding it all at the bottom. You may want to (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-99, to lugnet.publish)
