Table Backgrounds

[mandy1111]

Hi there!When I put a background on a table cell it doesn't show up in Firefox. Is there a way to have it show up?

Hi! A background on a table cell should work fine in firefox. Post your code and maybe someone can point out where you're going wrong.

Thanks for responding. Here it is:

<table width="600" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5">   <tr>     <td colspan="6" align="left" valign="top" class="style1"><em>Collections</em></td>   </tr>   <tr>     <td colspan="6" align="left" valign="top"><hr size="3"></td>   </tr>   <tr align="center" valign="middle" bgcolor="996666">     <td width="75" height="75"><a href="malibuteakslideshow/malibu.html"><img src="images/collections/malibu-1a.jpg" width="75" height="75" border="0"></a></td>     <td width="125" height="75" bgcolor="996666"><span class="collections"><a href="malibuteakslideshow/malibu.html" target="mainFrame">Malibu</a></span></td>     <td width="75" height="75"><a href="malibuteakslideshow/malibu.html"><img src="images/collections/malibu-1a.jpg" width="75" height="75" border="0"></a></td>     <td width="125" height="75"><span class="collections"><a href="malibuteakslideshow/malibu.html" target="mainFrame" class="collections">Malibu Teak</a></span></td>     <td width="75" height="75"><a href="malibuteakslideshow/malibu.html"><img src="images/collections/lajolla-01a.jpg" width="75" height="75" border="0"></a></td>     <td width="125" height="75"><span class="collections"><a href="malibuteakslideshow/malibu.html" target="mainFrame">La Jolla</a></span></td>   </tr>   <tr align="center" valign="top">     <td colspan="2"><p class="collections"><a href="malibuteakslideshow/malibu.html" target="mainFrame"><img src="images/collections/malibu-1b.jpg" width="195" height="220" border="0"></a></p>         </td>     <td colspan="2"><p class="collections"><a href="malibuteakslideshow/malibu.html" target="mainFrame"><img src="images/collections/malibu-1b.jpg" width="195" height="220" border="0"></a></p>         </td>     <td colspan="2"><p class="collections"><a href="malibuteakslideshow/malibu.html" target="mainFrame"><img src="images/collections/malibu-1b.jpg" width="195" height="220" border="0"></a></p>         </td>   </tr></table>

Try putting a # before your colour codes. So "#996666" instead of "996666". Colour codes are hex values so the # should be there to tell the browser that, that is what it is. IE tends to overlook mistakes like that, but Firefox is more standards compliant.You may already be aware of this, but bgcolor is depreciated now, and it is advised that you use CSS styles instead. Since you appear to be using styles already you may feel comfortable changing.
