Background Picture in Table Cell - Can't change on FP2003

About 7 months ago when redesigning my web site home page I inserted a
photograph as the back ground to a cell.

This I think I did in FP2000.

Shortly afterwards I bought the FP2003 upgrade pack. The upgrade went
smoothly and everything continued to work fine.

Recently I wanted to make some changes to the background picture in one of
the cells on the home page.

However, I appear to be unable to do this.

The use background picture option is greyed out even though I can see the
filename of the background picture currently in use.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks

John

Click in the table cell. Find the highlighted <td> on the tag selector bar
at the top of the document view and click on it. Use Alt-Enter, or click on
the dropdown arrow that appears to select tag properties.

You'll be able to edit the background image there.
