[thelist] Table Background (no repeat)

[Annie]

Thanks :) I have one more question. First, I wanted to set it as a TD
background, so I changed Table to TD. Now I need to know how to get it to
sit as a background ONLY in one cell :) It's appearing in all cells, of all
tables ( I have about 4 nested tables with multiple cells).

Thanx!!

Annie

    Yes, it's possible. Modify this code to your specific needs:

<style type="text/css">
  table
  {
    background: #ffffff url(bgimage.gif) no-repeat scroll top center ;
  }
</style>

    Keep in mind that Netscape 4.x respects neither background-attachment
(scroll, in this case) nor background-position (top center). The lack of
support for background-attachment won't be an issue in this case, since
"scroll" results in traditional behavior, anyway. But Netscape 4's lack of
support for background-position will thwart your efforts in that browser.
