Hi,

In my layout, I use ssi, the ssi is working good so I know it's not that. But, in the content pages (.shtml) I table the content, so I can align it within the layout. But in the table I have another table, that aligns the text content 20 px from the left of the outer table. But, I'm also trying to use a background image to be behind the text, but it shows a little black space behind the imgae.

So, basically I need to know:
How to make a tables background transparent.

Whew:eek:

Here maybe this is easier to understand:

Say this is my html:

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<table background="image.gif">
<tr>
<td>
<table>
<tr>
<td>
blah blah blah
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

How do I get the inner table to be transparent so you can see the outer tables image behind the inner tables content?

<table style="backgroud-color:transport" >
<tr>
<td>
blah blah blah
