Re: HTML3.2 - background images and edge-to-edge tables

Hi Roger

I've been gaming since the late 70s, its just recently that I went LARPing. 
Played many others and even now play AD&D 3rd ed.

Roger, should have explained further. For the table idea to work you will 
need the above, AND you will need to chop up the images into two pieces.

The left image is your yellow color, and goes in the main (left) table cell 
as a background image (or just use bgcolor to match and forget the image as 
it seems to be one solid color).

The far right table cell gets your orange slide of colors as a background 
image.

Example:
<.tr>
<.td background="yellowbg.gif" width="100%>text goes here</td>
<.td background="orangeybg.gif width="125"><img 
src="images/moorcroft-brand-bar--vertical-text.gif" width="41" height="471" 
border="0" align="right" alt="Welcome to Moorcroft Collector on-line!"></td>
<./tr>

The above will keep your orangy colors at the far right, while your left 
side will expand or contract as you need to match the browser window.

The only other suggestion I have, would be to use CSS background 
positioning, but that may not work well with html 3.2.

Does that work with what you are trying to do, or am I missing something else.
