Background overlapping page...

G

ggs

Why, if I attach/insert a background to my say index.htm, does it overlap
the borders?
How do I rectify this? - I managed to change the top & left border "page"
properties to zero pixels and it solved the problem, but this did not work
for the bottom border.

A background for the page of course fills the entire page by default.
You don't say but I think that what you want is to have a different
background for your tables. That is easy, just specify the background in
table properties.

Re: Background overlapping page...Thanks, but not quite what I was looking
for.
If the background fills the whole screen by default, I would like the
borders also to reach the outer ends of the screen in order to cover those
pieces of the background still visible beyond the outer edges of the
borders.

Unless you are using the FP2002+ feature (requiring the FP 2020 SE) for the Shared border backgrounds (which are applied a table
background images),
the normal shared borders become a part of your page as tables using the same margins (and background image) as your main pages

You still don't say (it's almost like you don't want help) but I take it
you use a table you want to fill the entire width of the page. If so use
CSS to set the margin to zero.

<style>
body { margin: 0 }
</style>

Otherwise explain what it is you want. I can't keep guessing.
