    Problem with borders around tables,

    Hello,

    I am a complete newb with html, but I have a month with little to do before I start my new carreer and I decided to save some money and make my own website. I think Im picking it up fairly quickly, but I have hit a snag that I cant figure out. I am trying to make it so that I have one frame that has a different background color from the rest of the page. I can do that, but I always end up with an edged strip of the sites original backgorund color around the sides of the frame. I want the frames background color to run right to the edge of the screen. Also I was wondering how I could get thin vertical line running from the complete top of the screen all the way to the bottom between the frames.

    Here is my code so far. I know its not much and please excuse any glaring mistakes as I just started working with html today. Also I am using 1st Page 2000 if that makes a difference.

    Thanks for any help!

    Re: Problem with borders around tables,

    Hi, welcome to the forums.

    Try adding the following code between the <head> and </head> tags in your page:

    Code:
    <style type="text/css">
body {
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
</style>
    That should sort it.
