Hello,

When using tables, I always get the open chunk around the outside! I was wondering if anybody knows how to remove this.

This is an example of what I want - http://www.kaphost.com/

Regards,

Please describe this better. I dont understand your question

Are you talking about having the table start at the very top of the window? I think if you View/Source you'll find that in the body tag margins are set. This is probably what is allowing the table to start at the top of the window.

On the Future Visions website, there is a gap between the table and the browser window edges. With KAPHOST, there is not. I need to know how to do it!

Thanks.

Not sure it is, the only code in it is -

<body>

<table border="0" width="100%" height="438">
<tr>
<td width="100%" colspan="2" height="104" background="header_bg.bmp">
<p align="center"><font f....

Its already set to 0.

I hear it can be done with CSS, anyone know how?

Ok, thanks your everyones help, but I got it!

The body tag needs to be changed from <body> to <body topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightborder="0">

You can also use CSS

Code:

body {
    margin: 0;
}
