sorry, no idea
hey, how come you specify
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"
topmargin="0" leftmargin="0"
marginheight="0" marginwidth="0">
but then you build that CCCC99 border strip into your images?
oh, never mind, i think i get it -- you wanted the table to touch the right
side of the window, but not the left, so you "built in" a bit of left
padding...
> <table width="100%" border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0
background="images/backgroundTop.gif">
> <tr><td>
> <img src="images/topLeftCorner.gif" width="161" height="116"
border="0"><br>
> </td><td width="100%">
> <center><img src="images/ronsPage.gif" border=0 height=116
width=394><br></center>
> </td></tr>
> </table>
try putting your background image into the table cells instead of the
table -- netscape 4 doesn't do table backgrounds
i really like how your design uses a tiling body background image down the
left side underneath the same table that uses a tiling image for the top
bar...
however, both your body background image backgroundLeft.gif
as well as the table backgroundTop one are really really slim --
what, one or two pixels? -- and i think i heard of page rendering
problems if background images weren't at least 8 pixels wide
and/or tall (not really sure about that number, though)...
i think charles johnson (http://littlegreenfootballs.com) had a
problem with this a while ago, so if you see this, charles, maybe
you can confirm or correct my faulty memory
