Topic: Removing borders with html?

OK, I tried my best to make a site: http://oddv2.t35.com/2.html

If you click the link above, you will notice that in IE it makes a white border around the image. I have used paintshop pro to slice the image up, namely for the text fields (not yet created), and I do not know if I have somehow messed up the code to cause the white borders.

Here's the code:

<!-- Begin Table -->
<TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" WIDTH="1008" HEIGHT="618">

I need to remove the white border, so if anyone can help, I would be very appreciative.

You mean the margin at the left side and the top?

Remove it by inserting the following in the head

<style type="text/css">

html, body {

 margin: 0;

 padding: 0;

}

</style>

Or you could use div alignment, it seems a bit easier IMO to div things when you want more than one thing to be pin-pointed in precise places.

<div style="position:absolute;top:0px;left:0px;">

<--insert the table you want to dive here-->

</div>

So your code might look something like this:

<div style="position:absolute;top:0px;left:0px;">

<TABLE>

<TR>

<TD backround="YxZ.jpg" ROWSPAN="1" COLSPAN="1" WIDTH="20" HEIGHT="20">blah blah blah</TD>

</TR>

</TABLE>

</div>

And it isn't adding a border to it, thats the backround of your home page, so if for example you decide to use <body bg=black> than it would look like black border, see what I am saying?

{{And to get rid of that evil pop up, try putting this right beneath </HTML>}}
