TINY TABLE TIDBITS Written by FLO TRICKS WITH TEXTAREA BOXES FOR MSN TV & PC'S For MSN TV, a table is necessary to put a colored or plain border around a textarea box. This first tabled textarea box is for MSN TV. However, both MSN TV users and pc's running Internet Explorer can see colored backgrounds and text color in textarea boxes. MSN TV users will not see bold text, but pc users should see the text as bold. Very Cool Textarea! You should be seeing pink text on a black background. Computer users running I.E. will see a red border around the box below. MSN TV users will not see any border. <!-- Add the table for MSN TV --> <table bgcolor="red" bordercolor="red" border="15"><td> <!-- Table not needed for pc's --> <form><textarea rows="3" cols="40" bgcolor="black" text="pink" style="border:15px ridge #ff0000" style="background-color: black; color: pink; font-weight: bold; font-size: 12pt;">(/textarea)</form> <!-- Add this if you are using the table --> </td></table> <!-- NOTE.replace ( ) with < > --> If you use a pc: eliminate the following from the textarea code: bgcolor="black" text="pink" If you use MSN TV: eliminate the following from the textarea code: style="border:15px ridge #ff0000" style="background-color: black; color: pink; font-weight: bold; font-size: 12pt;" If you are making a page for both pc's and MSN TV, then leave in ALL the codes.
