Proprietary Markup
Does anyone know how I can set the background of a page in HTML to
be watermarked (i.e., the background doesn't move when the user scrolls up or down)?
Just put BGPROPERTIES=FIXED into the body tag. This is an MSIE-specific
property.
How can you freeze a bg picture so that it doesn't scroll with the
text, rather, the text scrolls over it?
You can make the background of a page not scroll by using the following:
<body background="whatever.jpg" bgproperties="fixed">
Can anyone suggest me how to get rid of body margin in netscape
navigator?
In the body tag include the code:
<BODY MARGINHEIGHT="0" MARGINWIDTH="0"
LEFTMARGIN="0" TOPMARGIN="0">
Does anyone know how to make tables a different color in Netscape?
My tables are black bordered and show up just fine in IE, but in
Netscape they stay white.
Currently (in August of 1999), only IE supports changing the border color of a table,
but you can get around it with nested tables. What you do is you make one
big table and set its background color to the border color you want. Inside
that, you make the other table with the content. For the inside table,
if you set the cellspacing="1" the background of the large table shows
through as a border. You will have to set the smaller table's cells to
white (or whatever the background color is) though. This technique gets messy quickly, but it's great if all you need is a fairly simple table with a border.
