Can you see what is wrong with my code please?

's Computer Specifications

I am very new to this HTML lark and am on the verge of giving up. I had
hoped Frontpage would be the answer to my dreams but now I don't feel so
certain.

The problem I am seeing is, that although the table is defined at 200px wide
and the image is also specified to be 200px wide the image is pushing the
table out to 202px.

I have tried setting the image at 198 but then of course the picture is less
than the cell above it. I want the coloured cell above the picture to be
the same width as the picture.

I have no idea what I am doing wrong and have had no luck Googling for an
answer.

Please could anyone advise me what is going on? I really hope so.

Thanks for looking.

Don

Can your provide a URL to this page?

Make sure that all table / cell padding is set to zero, as well as making sure the image doesn't
have any background blending borders.

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" width="200">

should be -

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="200">

If you don't specify all three of the cell attributes, you get the default
for the one that's missing.

Sadly that did not work Murray. I now have the following code but the table
is still pushed out by 2px.

I am not clear why the % bit would make a difference to my problem as it
only defines that the cell must stretch for the entire width of the table
IIUC.

Have I misunderstood this please Tom?
