Hi, in my page i have a table, and some cells have background color, but Netscape don't shows the background color, i'm using the tag like this:

<td colspan="2" valign="baseline" bgcolor="#345998"></td>

and i'm using Dreamweaver 4.

Any ideas??

Thanks

Is the table cell in question empty? I know you need to have *some* content in a table cell to make the color show in all browsers... even if it's just a non-breaking space.

Yes, the table cell is empty, but in Explorer the cell shows the color, the problem is Netscape.

But i've tried your suggestion and it works, i wrote something like:
<td bgcolor="#3333FF"> </td>
and now it's working.

Thanks mivox.

See you.

No problem... that's one of those annoying browser problems I remember beating my head over.

By the way, if nobody's said so yet, welcome to WmW Zelda! Hope you enjoy the forums. :)
