The Question:

I know that the <BODY> statement is supposed to be how your page is going to look,
but how do I use it?

Answer: It is true that the <BODY> statement controls the way your page will look, but
there are some nifty things you can do to get it that way.
Lets look at a few:
BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" or "WHITE" - This is how you set the color for your Background
TEXT="#000000" or "BLACK" - This is how you set the color for your Text
LINK="#0000FF" or "BLUE" - This is how you set the color of your Links
ALINK="#FF0000" or "RED" - And this is how you set the color for the Active Links
VLINK="#FF0000" or "RED" - This is where you set the color for Visited Links
BACKGROUND="./images/bkg.gif" - This is how you set a Background Image.
I dont mean to confuse you with the "./images/ " This simply changes directs the browser
to another subdirectory where the images are stored. I personally like to keep images and
code in two different directories to keep things neat and organized.
BGPROPERTIES="fixed" - Here's a nifty little trick if you want the words to scroll
but not the background image!
Try it! :)
