RE: Background image

The background attribute is deprecated. Use a style sheet to set the
background:

background-color: #ffffff;

or

background: #ffffff url("http://some.com/images/bgnd.gif");

You can add this to the table element:

table { background: ... }

but I think you'll have better luck creating a generic class:

.WhiteBgnd { background: ... }

and then using the class attribute in the table tag.

Good luck.

Can someone please explain the proper use of the background="" tag for use
with tables in both IE and Netscape?

Thanks,
