| A nice feature in controlling the appearance of your web page (aren't you tired of so-called "Mosaic gray"?) is being able to design the background. This is done either by giving a plain color or by supplying an image to use for the background. Backgrounds are specified as an attribute to the <body> tag. |
| <body bgcolor="#HHHHHH"> |
| <body background="URL"> |
| where the URL refers to an image. Note that this image can be small - it will just be repeated as necessary to fill the browser window. |
| Many image files suitable for backgrounds are found at the web site http://www.netscape.com/assist/net_sites/bg/background.html |
| Other <body> attributes can specify colors for links. |
