On the page: http://vancouverjazz.com/melody/index.shtml
I want to eliminate the left and top margins so that the image goes right to the edges of the window. I set the marginwidth and marginheight to "0" and it looks exactly right in Dreamweaver but when viewing in browsers there are still margins.

Any idea how to get what I want?

Make sure to set topmargin="0" and leftmargin="0" as well.[nbsp][nbsp]Netscape and IE use different tags to set this.

Well Binky, I just took a look in NS 4.73 and the image is indeed flush left and top!!![nbsp][nbsp]So I guess you got this figured out![nbsp][nbsp]:)

Have a Good One

Obviously, it's a problem of non-standard html. E.g., So I guess you got this figured out!I hadn't changed anything! and Make sure to set topmargin="0" and leftmargin="0" as well.After doing this it looked just about right in IE5, but not in NS3 or Opera 3.62

Guess I'll forget about it. :(

Thanks for helping.

NS3 and Opera do not support zero margin settings.[nbsp][nbsp]One could say those programs are virtually worthless, but I'm sure someone out there will disagree.[nbsp][nbsp]You can be comforted by the knowledge that they only make up a fraction of a percent of browsers in use.[nbsp][nbsp];)
