When using borders for your backgrounds, you need to align your text to the right. There are two ways of doing so. One will work for Netscape Browsers, and the second will work for Netscape and Internet Explorer Browsers. It's recommended that you use the second method if you want your pages to look good to the majority of people.
The Netscape only method is to add the following after your <body> section:
<ul> <ul> <ul>
Then at the end of your document before your </body> section, add:
</ul> </ul> </ul>
The second method involves setting your entire document in a table.
After your <body> section add the following:
<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0>
<tr><td align=top valign=left vspace=0 hspace=0 width=158>
<img src="vspacer.gif" width=100 height=2></td><td align=left
valign=top>
At the very end of your page, just before the closing body and html tags,
close your table like this:
</tr></td></table>

the arrow and "save as...")
