I've been trying to get just a plain background on my gym page for quite ahwhile now. Im obviously no expert on HTML so I figured someone could help me out. I went to htmlgoodies.com and read how to put a black background on my page. The thing didn't work for me so I was wondering if anyone had any sugguestions or an easier way to get a plain black background.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

[style]
body {font-size:13pt;color:gray;background-color: black;}
[/style]

course before and after the word style, you need to replace the brackets [ and ] with the arrows < and >.

I perfer

[style]body {background-color:#111111} [/style] [BODY BGCOLOR="yellow" TEXT="palegoldenrod" LINK="darkred" VLINK="darkred"]

of course change [ and ]to < and >

might make it easier for you to change text color too

Using <BODY BGCOLOR="yellow" TEXT="palegoldenrod" LINK="darkred" VLINK="darkred"> is technically an invalid HTML page. While your browser should still interpret it, it is fundamentally in error. Stick the pieces you want in the STYLE SHEET definition like Malibu suggested. It is the 'more correct' way to design a page.
