Fw: background-image in CSS

 Hello Bob,

 Thanks for your reaction.

 I  don't want to exclude anybody from seeing the effect.  In netscape 4.7 you can't see it because the background-image does not
exist at all.  Due to broken -css interpretation, I used
CSS to provide only the white background.

 Cheers
 Ineke
