working on a site and my background was made to look like a border.
im new to working with tables all i know is what ive read on the internet.

play around with cellspacing = " x " and cellpadding = " x " perhaps ?

if you really want to position it accurately id use css to do that. you just wrap this code bracket around the object you want to position.


(div) style="position:absolute; top:20px; left:0px; right:50px; bottom:100px")yadda yadda (/div)

and set the coordinates accordingly (you dont need to define what you dont use, e.g. you can also just define that left position).

(put this in brackets of course, vb processed the code so i cant paste it like that here)
