'my space'? 'about me'?


Are you talking about webspace maade available to you by your Internet Service Provider?


If so, then try this html code


<html>
<body>

<table border=2>

<tr><td> My Name </tr>

</table>

</body>
</html>

if you do that then, strictly speaking, it should be border="2" (with the quotes) and also
</td>
just after My Name.

CSS gives you more control over this type of thing so one brief way of doing it would be to copy and paste this, then amend it to suit your needs :

<div style="border : 2px solid #dcdcdc; background-color:#d8efff; width:50%; color:navy;">2px= border width, solid can be changed to dotted, dashed etc. the colour is easily changed. Same with the background colour, width and finally font colour.</div>

A better way to do this would be to use an "external stylesheet", link to this in the head section of your html page and have the " color : navy " type statements in there.
