A bit frustrated, I cannot seem to figure out how to get the Background I want to be uniform on the page using Tables and CSS
I want one look and the Tables to be Transparent as far as color goes only to pick up the background image I am using in the body statement for CSS
Is this possible?
Thanks in advanced

As long as this code is in the style section
body{
background-image: url("yourpic.jpg")
}
and your table lacks a bgcolor attribute, then the picture will be in the background of a transparent table.

Not a problem. I learned, through desktop application building, that when I got stuck on something where my program had errors that I should just walk away for a while because tunnel vision will only leave you banging your head against the desk.

I'm using tables, and I DON'T want them to all have the exact same format. How can I override this?
Basically, all I want to do is have a border on one table per page, and the rest of the tables on the page with no border at all. I don't guess I know how to style tables within the html if that is what I have to do!

You can either assign classes to the tables to style them or use inline styles.

Ok, not silly anymore! I tried adding classes, and nothing moved! Don't know how to do inline styles. Can someone suggest something that might actually work for me. I'm using a book for reference, but everything I try does nothing.
Here is my table:
I just want a nice margin around the text. That's it!
Here is my table:

try adding to your style sheet
and start your table with:
table.style1 {background-color:#80FF80; border:double; border-color:#FF8000; }
and start your table with:
<table class="style1">
