Who knows CSS here? Very simple question here........

How do you make a table cell's background color a gradient? I think you need CSS for this, right?

[HowardTheDuck]

You can use the MSIE proprietary "filter:" directive to achieve this effect. This is NOT in the standard of CSS, only MSIE can display it...

Is there a standard way to do this, so that IE and Netscape can see the gradient?

See here: http://forums.ikonboard.com/

I know I can view the source code, but I don't understand CSS code.

[HowardTheDuck]

use images of course like they do:

td {
background-image: url(http://www.ikonboard.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/Skin/Default/images/topcell.jpg);
}

BTW their code is invalid because they use ids instead of classes - ids are only allowed to appear once in a document - hence the name id. so don't copy from them

if you use my example snippet above your design should have their gradient within every table data cell.

So they use images! I thought it's related to CSS. Thanks anyway, HTD!
