Hi all. I'm developing a Web Page for my church. We made a banner on the top with a background color of blue. The background color of the rest of the page is brown. Around the banner at the top, there is a brown border and we don't like it. We want the banner to be positioned in the very top left. We've tried alignt=top, and align-left but we can't seem to get rid of this border. Is this something that is always going to be there, or can we get around this?

There's always (I think) a border around web pages so the only suggestion I have would be to split your page into 2 frames. You could then give your top frame (containing only your top banner) a dark blue background to match the image. The lower frame containing the main page could retain the brown background.

I tried to add frames to my code, and it's still not working. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or not. Can I get some more help on this one?

>> 'There are three kinds of people: Those who can count and those who can't'

There are 10 types of people in this world - those who understand binary, and those who don't.

OK, here's how frames work :

You create a frameset with, in your case, a top frame and a main frame.

You then create TWO SEPARATE PAGES - one containing your banner which you place in the top frame, the other containing the main content of your page which you place in the main frame.

Check out for a basic introduction.

Don't dive into the world of frames if you don't really have to. You can solve your problem by changing one line:

Change from...
Code: 
<body bgcolor='#d9c79d'>
... to...
Code: 
<body bgcolor='#d9c79d' style="margin: 0; padding: 0;">
... and the border will disappear, the first table will be at the top. Hope it helps.
