Background image in a table 3x3

I have a tables set 3 x 3
I wish to have a different coloured circle background in
each.
I have created a .bmp file and tried to add it but it just
fills the box with the colour of the .bmp file
I have also resized the .bmp file and still it does the same
even when the file size was 10x10 dpi
Please can someone tell me what I am doing wrong.
I am using dreamweaver and selecting .bmp as the BG file in
the properties of each box within my table.
I think it only does the BG colour, but why is it asking for
a file?
<table width="40%">
<tr>
<td background="grey dot bg.bmp">
<div align="center">a</div></td>
<td background="blue dot bg.bmp">
<div align="center">b</div></td>
<td><div align="center">c</div></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><div align="center">d</div></td>
<td><div align="center">e</div></td>
<td><div align="center">f</div></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><div align="center">g</div></td>
<td><div align="center">h</div></td>
<td><div align="center">i</div></td>
</tr>
</table>
is there an easier way?
thanks for your help.

You should be using css, not background image via the
property inspector.
Here's an example you can examine. Look at the css code in
the head of the
document.

  • Background image in a table not in the document

    hello forum, i would like to put a background image in a table so that I am able to put things on top of the image and so it moves with the table.  I can only figure out how to do it in the page properties so that it is static on the page. Can anyone please tell me if what I am trying to do is possible? thank you in advance. Jim.

    Hi John,
    thanks for your hint, now I've got it. And so I was able to integrate/to play with Gramps hint in some variations too.Hans-G.

  • Background image in a table

    Older versions allowed you to insert a background image into a table or cell. CS4 does not have that option. Does anyone know how to do this. Thanks

    You need to use CSS to create a rule so that the table cell shows a background image. Example: Place the following in the head of your document, or take the style and place it in your current stylesheet.
    CSS:
    <style type="text/css">
    .cellback {
    background: url(pics/bckgroundhor.jpg) no-repeat;    /* this background will not repeat */
    </style>
    HTML:
    and then give the cell the class of cellback
    <td class="cellback">
    Example here:

  • Background Image repeating for table cells

    I am trying to put different images as the background to all
    the cells in a table, so I can put text over the top of them, but I
    cant have an image without it repeating. Ive tried going into the
    code and adding background-image: "no-repeat" but that hasn't
    worked. I know nothing of CSS and it seems really confusing - so if
    this is the answer please give me CSS for dummies instructions.
    Layers drive me bonkers as no 2 browsers display them in the same
    place.
    URL is:
    http://www.visionsportsmedia.com/BillyTestSite/test
    At the moment only cell one is a background image, the rest
    are images inserted normally.
    Hope you can help.
    Thanks.

    Your question reflects the confusing mess your life will be
    if you persist
    with web authoring without taking the time to learn some HTML
    and CSS.
    You have -
    <th height="351" colspan="6" "scope="col">
    Note the extra doublequote just before 'scope'.
    Also note that your preloads (look at the body tag) as well
    as your image
    swaps (look elsewhere - everywhere you see 'file:///') are
    all broken -
    pointing to files on your hard drive. Finally, you might want
    to just think
    about making a page where there is no readable content
    (everything here is
    in images). It will get a zero search engine ranking....

  • Stop Background Image in Table from Repeating

    Since CS4 has unfortunately removed the button for Background Image for tables, I found a neat work-around on the internet:  select the cell, then open the Tag Inspector panel, select the Attributes button and Show list view, and click inside "background" and use the folder icon to navigate to the background image.  However, I can't stop the image from repeating.  I've tried everything I can think of.  Can anyone help me?  No code responses, please.  Thanks!

    Yes.
    No code responses, please.  Thanks!
    Well, in that case, the answer is no.
    Quite honestly, if you're capable of searching for an answer on the internet, and using the Tag Inspector to add a background image, you should be capable of following simple instructions to handle CSS.
    To add a non-repeating background image to a table cell (or any element, for that matter), you use CSS. Create a CSS class like this in the head of the page:
    <style type="text/css">
    .background {
      background-image: url(images/bg.jpg);
      background-repeat: no-repeat;
    </style>
    Select the table cell, and then choose background from the Class menu in the Property inspector.

  • Tables & Background Images

    I am currently using Dreamweaver CS4. I am attempting to add
    a background image into a table cell. When I look at how to do this
    on the web, it says to select the Bg Image within the PROPERTIES
    PANE, then browse and choose a background image. My problem is as
    follows; the 'Bg Image' feature does not appear in the PROPERTIES
    PANE, only the 'Bg Color' selection appears. Is there a setting I
    need to set to turn this feature on in the PROPERTIES PANE?
    Thanks,
    Rick

    No. You need to learn how to create a CSS style rule.

  • Stopping tiling in a table background image

    I'm trying to stop the tiling of the background image within
    a table in Dreamweaver 8.
    It seems to be different then "no-repeat" for the general
    background.
    Was hoping someone could help me out.
    Thanks.

    You have no tiling control there at all.
    Change this -
    <table width="612" height="1081" border="0"
    background="ess_web_ad_bg.jpg">
    to this -
    <table width="612" height="1081" border="0"
    background="ess_web_ad_bg.jpg"

  • Background image is slightly repeating itself in my table

    Last week, someone really helped (Murray) in helping me add a
    background image to my header table, then nesting another table
    inside for my links. I tried to do it manually, however, it just
    wouldn't work. He then added some new code and it worked perfectly!
    However, I did notice that now the background image in that table
    doesn't extend the full length of the table. It cuts of 1/8th of an
    inch short and then the image starts to repeat itself. It isn;t
    much but doesn't look clean. Any ideas on how to change it to
    flush? I tried to manuever the main table of the site over, but it
    didn't have an effect. I think the background image just stayed the
    same with the change. Thanks for your help once again! Code is
    below but had to shorten it since ithis site only allows a certain
    amount of text. website is:

  • Repeating background images in tables

    I am working on a web page with a background image in a
    table. I have also inserted a table inside this same table to
    include some text. When I preview this in Netscape/Firefox and
    increase the text size a couple of times from the browsers menu,
    the table with the image starts repeating as the text increases in
    size. I don't mind the text changes sizes, but is there a way to
    stop the table from repeating the background image? This is a
    problem since the repeating image looks terrible.

    On that page, change this -
    </head>
    to this -
    <style type="text/css">
    table.special { background-repeat:no-repeat; }
    </style>
    </head>
    and then change your table tag from this -
    <table width="100%" height="606" border="0" align="center"
    cellpadding="0"
    cellspacing="0">
    to this -
    <table width="100%" border="0" align="center"
    cellpadding="0"
    cellspacing="0" class="special">
    (there is no table height attribute - it's invalid HTML)
    > b, be too small, dependent upon which browser they are
    viewed in.
    Impossible. A background image will not change size in
    different browsers.

  • Table background image

    I created a site with a table holding the background image.
    Other tables are within this containing the content.
    It works fine but if i use a .png image for the background i
    get a thin blue line at the top. see here:
    http://proof.outoffocusonline.com/
    (it is visible above contact).
    If i make the background image a .jpg or a .gif this problem
    disappears - that is with making NO other changes just the name
    extension.
    Any ideas why this occurs? and how can i fix it? - the image
    does not look nearly as good in gif form due to the shadow/glow
    effect. And jpg boosts the filesize by a lot.
    thanks.

    Does the PNG contain transparency?

  • Image map + link in background image

    Is it possible to put an image map and link to a background
    image of a table?

    no but you can put a 1px by 1 x blank transparent image over
    the background image and add an image map to that

  • Background image in td

    I have a background image in a td tag that worked fine, until
    several months ago. The image shows up in Firefox, but does not
    show in IE. Any suggestions. the code is
    <th width="96" height="274" align="left" valign="top"
    background="images/btn_UPCOME.jpg" bgcolor="#898AC0"
    scope="row"no-repeat="no-repeat" fixed="fixed">

    Your code is horked....
    <th width="96" height="274" align="left" valign="top"
    background="images/btn_UPCOME.jpg" bgcolor="#898AC0"
    scope="row"no-repeat="no-repeat" fixed="fixed">
    First, you should be using CSS to specify the background
    image. Next, you
    are missing a space between '"row"' and 'no-repeat'. Then,
    there is no such
    attribute as either 'no-repeat' or 'fixed'. Try this -
    <th width="96" height="274" align="left" valign="top"
    style="background-image:url(images/btn_UPCOME.jpg);
    background-color:#898AC0;repeat:no-repeat;background-attachment:fixed;">
    But - be aware, IE doesn't play well with fixed background
    images on
    anything but a body tag. The good news is that it doesn't
    make good sense
    to have a fixed background image in this table cell.

  • Re: Problem using Background Images

    Newbie is trying to use a background image inside a table. It seems that if the table size is larger that the original image itself; then the table has a blank space where the image does not show; and if the table is smaller than the image; then the background image has a cropped appearance. What do we have to do to correct this problem?

    Background images do not stretch to fill their container.  At least they don't do this yet (reliably).  That's just the way it is.  Most people will fill the remaining space with a color similar to the overall image color, when the image is too small to fill the background.  When it's too large?  Well, that's just the way it is.

  • Is there a better way to do this?  CSS rules/Background image/tables

    Hi,
    I am designing a site and I have used a table for the banner.  Everytime a different page is displayed, the banner image changes.  I have created .html pages, and I have created a lot of css rules to change the background image.  I think there must be a more efficiant way to do this?
    http://www.taffyproductions.com/test/
    ALSO... I need to figure out how to make the links (hover/active states) work on all the pages... I figured it out on the index page, but I'm sure there is a better css rule?

    Put a div in the head section?  Surely you jest!
    But you do hint at the easy solution - just have an embedded stylesheet in the head of each page that changed the background image only on that page.  No need for any other complexities.
    In other words on page1, change this -
    <link href="outpost.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    </head>
    to this -
    <link href="outpost.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    <style type="text/css">
    table#banner { background-image:url(images/banner1.jpg); }
    </style>
    </head>
    and on page2 change it to this -
    <link href="outpost.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    <style type="text/css">
    table#banner { background-image:url(images/banner2.jpg); }
    </style>
    </head>
    etc.

  • Inserting table background images [was: CS4 DW]

    Dear all,
    I've have trouble inserting the background images in a cell of a table. When I was using CS3 I had the options of selecting BG color or image, as well as choosing the border color.
    Right now in CS4 I can't even insert one in a cell, only color bg, and also editing the font size, color, type..
    Can anyone advise?

    CSS code uses a different syntax than HTML code.
    With CSS you can use a background-color: #FFF or a background-image (URL).  This can point to an absolute URL:
    background: url (http:yoursite.com/images/bg-image.jpg)
    or to an image in your  DW local site folder:
    background: url (some-folder-in-your-local-site/image.jpg)
