    I have a problem. I'm currently using Namo Web editor and have a web site using it but I would like to have a site with a background color and a page on on top of the background. For the life of me I can't get that done. Do I need differant software to design that? I can add photos.video and that kind of stuff but man I can't get the web page I want.:confused:

    Try adding the following to you body tag

    <body bgcolor="#000000">

    You can find color designations in many places. One site I like is visibone.

    I prefer the css option, add it before </head>
    <style type="text/css">
    body{background-color:#000;}
    </style>

    So by adding this it will look like a page setting on top of the main page? The back ground for example would be black and the other page say could be white.

    It will look like the type is printed on top of colored paper.

    I can change my background color and type on top of it but what I want is the page to look like it is in the middle in one color and both ends another color. Do I have to use frames to do this:eek:

    You could use a DIV tag for each section you want: one, two, three, etc. Define the background color of each DIV either by creating a class for each color, or by putting a style tag into the DIV to indicate the color you want.
    Good luck.
