For the g'zillionth time, it may be deprecated for new content but recommended that browsers support deprecated tags to support existing pre-deprecation content. IYSWIM The meaning of bgcolors in tables is clearer if you are able to see this in a browser which does all three, such as Netsurf. :-o <table bgcolor="#FF0000" cellspacing="16"> <tr bgcolor="#00FF00"> <td bgcolor="#FFFF00"> hello </td> <td> world </td> </tr> </table> Each element can have its own bgcolor. -- Tim Hill, www.timil.com
