ok, lets forget the left side, I am more concerned with the top menu and the part that says Monthly Specials

here is the code that I currently have set for the page. The .menubord is in between the tags

}
.menubord {
border: 1px solid #003366;
color: #003366;
background-color: #6699CC;
}

Try adding a background-color:#??????; to your style, it may help

I have not looked at your code but try using the background shorthand code instead of the background-color code. This means it would be:
background: none #6699CC repeat scroll 0% 0%;

Also. I beleive that some versions of NS 4 only support layer background colors like this:
layer-background-color: #6699CC;

Hope that helps.

If it's just a background color, there is something wrong with your code, as that is supported (and well) in both Netscape and IE.

.menubg {
	background-image: url(images2/ssgbnew_r3_c1.jpg);
	background-repeat: no-repeat;
	background-position: left top;
}
.menubg2 {
	background-image: url(images2/ssgbnew_r4_c1.jpg);
	background-repeat: repeat;
	background-position: left top;
}

That's where you have backgrounds. No background-color at all.

.menubord {
	border: 1px solid #003366;
	color: #003366;
	background-color: #6699CC;
}

This has a background-color, but there is nothing wrong with it.

Everything else is in the HTML. If you want to use CSS, quite seriously, remove all HTML markup that should be done with CSS and put it all (as much as possible) in the stylesheet. Not only will it be easier to troubleshoot, it'll also work better.

I don't see anywhere else you've used background-color -- why not give a more specific example, or a snip of code?

Can you post the bit of code that's giving you this problem?

I don't understand what you mean by "relative to the root url" because it isn't an image I am assigning, but a simple background color.

I just need a little more description

Thanks

I use a relative to root url for images in the CSS -- that usually resolves issues. N4.x looks for images relative to the CSS file, or is it relative to the .html file. I can't remember now, but relative to root is the best option all around, for the best results.
