    Stretch BG IMG to meet a frame's size?

    I'm working on my very first page, so im getting snagged quite often. This time i thought I'd get some advice from the pros.

    I have a frame row located at the top of the page. It's purpose is to hold my banner image in place. I'd like to make the image size itself to fill the entire frame so as to prevent losing the end of the image in lower resolutions. Right now i just created the image as the exact size of the frame, as seen with my resolution, and used 'background-image' to display it. Far from clean, so thats why I'm here.

    I remember coming across a "maximum" and "minimum" size attribute, but don't know how to use it. It would be great if the image would stretch/shrink to a certain degree, but then have scrolls when it's been reduced to a specified minimum percentage.

    well, I tried using the 'img src=' with "0" border and setting each dimention set to 100%, this works, but it doesn't fill the entire frame, but rather leaves void around it. Now im even more confused.

    It could be that the body of the framed page has a margin/padding, try adding this in your head -

    Code:
    body
{
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}

    I can do it with this
    HTML Code:
    <html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<table width="100%" border="1px">
<tr><td width="100%" align="center">
<img src="IMAGE.HERE" width="100%" height="200px"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
    you could adjust and adapt it for you're purposes; however, I would caution about combining percentages and absolute values for images. In fact, I don't think it's even valid html (and alot of folks are probably cursing me for even suggesting it!) I don't think some browsers like it. I don't think I would use it just for the fact that in stretching an image it distorts severely.
    Good exercise to play with though
