Default Background


I am designing a page using fixed width(760 pix) with a DWT using tables in
editable area. How do I center the page in a 1024 browser, and how would I
give the unused space to the sides of the page a BG color? Thanks in advance.

The unused space will simply be the background color of the page. Next,
place a table of the specified width (in this case 760 px) and place all the
content inside this table. You can set the alignment for center on the table
and that will cause it to automatically center inthe browser window. You'll
also probably want to set a background color for the table itself so that
the background color of the page doesn't bleed through.

Hope this helps,

I put all the content in a table and got it to center 760px, on a 1024
browser the space out side is still white. Can I give this a color?

Yes, assign a background color to your pages under page properties.
