Im trying to control the background image tiling Netscape 4.77 applies in a table. The problem is that I must use a background images so as text can be written on top. So if the container table has a background image, then netscape 4.77 will tile the image across the entire table. IE utilizes styles to control this, unfortunately 4.77 doesnt recognize these. Anyone have any ideas how to stop the image from repeating?

Ya, it's simple once you know the answer. But the way that older Netscape versions handle table backgrounds is NOT very intuitive. In fact, I dare say it's rather obtuse.

You can stop the kicking whenever you want, Yogi :)
