<BODY>

Between the <BODY> and </BODY> Tags contain the information for the color, background, and margins of your page. There are several commands that can go inside the <BODY> Tag, including:

ALINK

BACKGROUND
Background Image - This is the tiled background image. The graphic format can be .gif or .jpg. .
 
BGCOLOR
Background Color - This is the solid background color throughout your page. The color value should be an RGB Triplet, and can be a common color such as red, blue, purple, etc. On this page it's bgcolor="#FFFFEE".
 
BGPROPERTIES - Internet Explorer Only
Background Properties - Allows the ability "fix" a background image providing a watermark (non-scrolling) property so it doesn't tile as a background normally does. To gives a page with a background image a watermark background, add bgproperties="FIXED".
 
LEFTMARGIN - Internet Explorer Only
Left Margin - Allows a definable width before the text and images from the left side of the page begin. If you define leftmargin="50", it would start the indent of the text at 50 pixels from the left. Netscape and IE's natural left margin is about 10 pixels.
 
TOPMARGIN - Internet Explorer Only
Top Margin - Allows a definable height before the text and images from the top of the page begin. If you define topmargin="150", it would start at 150 pixels from the top. Netscape an IE's natural top margin is about 20 pixels.
