[thelist] Background is repeating in table cells...bad bad

[Michael Barrett]

This is a common Netscape 4.x problem, which I think even occurs when you
use CSS to specify a background image. Netscape causes each nested table
cell inherit the background image of the table it's nested in.

To avoid this problem, include ' background="" ' in all your tables cells
(<td>) that aren't supposed to have the background image.
