I've created a web page using tables, no CSS for layout. When I view in IE shows the black background color. when I view in Mozilla Firefox the background is white. Also, the top margins does not render as 0. This is my code

Thanks for any help!

Hello Bonnie, and welcome to the forums.

Missing the "#" I assume? And using those non-standard "margin" attributes? Or was there more to it?

You've got three choices when using colors for backgrounds:

Always check html or css for simple little typos! I had a page background color showing as black instead of white because I had backkground instead of background (2 k's).

Don't forget

<body style="background:#000;">

<body style="background-color:#000000;">

. And even if you're not using CSS for layout, you can still format the page with it whether inline or in an external file.
