Hi, guys. I got an another question.
Do you see any problem following:
<html>
<table border=1 callpadding=10>
<tr>
<th>Fish</th>
<th>Invertebrates</th>
</tr>

<tr background="blue.jpg" >
<td>Guppy</td>
<td>Snail</td>
</tr>

<tr background="pink.gif" >
<td>Swordtail</td>
<td>Crayfish</td>
</tr>
</table>
</html>

It is supposed to be "colorful" table. But nothing happens.
Do you know why?

I would try removing the background attributes from the TR tags and putting them in the TD tags. TR tags *never* have any attributes.

You might also tryi using a style sheet as opposed to using inline HTML styles. The style sheets are a bit easier to manage that the inline elements are.

They are also slowly being depricated, which makes it an even better reason to go with a CSS solutions as opposed to embedding inline elements.

Hi, Slime, Hi, Warmage! It worked. Thanks a lot.
I am doing HTML tutorial from the web to improve HTML skill of myself.
It said something like:

<tr background="/images/devimages/sand.gif">
<td>Guppy</td>
<td>Snail</td>
</tr>

But Slime, you said that <tr> never be put images, right? Thanks for telling me that.
See ya.
