    so every row in the database table gets a table row in html??
    Only if the Query is written to retreive all of the Database rows. More correctly stated, "so every row of the "Query Results" gets a table row in html??".

    background color, or "highlighting"

    in HTML/XHTML

    Fermat,That works if you use paragraphs for all the blocks of text on your page, but paragraphs aren't always the semantically correct tag to use. I would recommend the method vchris suggests. Spans are a generic inline container, which can also be a portion of a paragraph,and you avoid the necessity of dealing with the margins and paddings, etc of a paragraph. Furthermore, using a class will typically use less bandwidth for multiple occurrences of the "highlighted text" on a page.

    You have mixed %'ges and pixels in the column and margin widths. Stick to one or the other. If you want fixed width outer couluns, then set the middle column margins to a couple of pixels larger than that.

    I have been Hosted at Trap17.com, a "sister" Hosting service for nearly 2 years and never a problem. The Admins are quite experienced and are necessarily cautious above privacy concerns and such. The requirement for the personal information they ask for is to be able to connect a real world person to the account. They will never use it except when it is required for purposes relating to the account. I Moderate the Trap17 Forums that supplies support for the Qupis.com accounts, so if you need any questions answered, see you there.By the way, if a free hosting account registration does not ask for some privacy information such as address, etc, I would be suspicious. It could be an email harvester or worse. In the past, I had a free account and was bombarded with SPAM emails within days. Had to change email accounts. Qupis/Trap17 aren't like that.

    Can you see why it won't work the way I have it? I must be missing a margin or padding setting somewhere.
    There was probably (i am sure) some margins and default padding hanging around. by using the zero values on html and body, it resets everything to zero. Default values are not set to zero.

    A little bit cleaner than the Word > Html before your processing, but for some reaason, (probably proprietary codings or character sets)(notice the Windows - 1252?) I could not place this into a text editor, make changes and save the document... peculiar, eh? And this code is no where near Standards compliant. html 4. Font, align and p tags everywhere.
