Hello,

I have always have problems figuring this out.. If anyone can help me i would be very thankful. What i want to do is make kind of like a round back ground like you see on http://www.virtua-interactive.com/
I want to have a background color and then the middle be white. I dont want me tables to be squared on the edges, i want them to be curved. How do i do that?

You can't. The way they do it is they just make a graphic with a rounded edge.

    You can make a circle, cut it in 4 and place each quarter in the proper cells of a nine celled table.
    www.inforamp.net/~suzanne/index/celtic.html is a page where I have the code for that kind of table (you can make them any size, but that one is for a full page), and troubleshooting tips. There is also a link to a tutorial for more complex graphics.

    I know I saw a tip for making rounded corners, maybe on www.designsbymark.com in his web design tips section.

    hth,

    This one you refer to virtua interactive isnt even as complicated as suzannes...simply a white rectangle table with a 90 degree rounded corner stuck in each of the corner cells of the table..make one graphic and rotate 90 resave..etc..
