If you're going to use a .gif or .jpg as a background in a <td> cell is there a way to keep it from repeating? I've not much fortune with it at this point.
Thanks,

Use CSS background property, set to either no-repeat, repeat-x, or repeat-y.

the full code for that is:
<td style="background: #ffffff url(graphics.png) left no-repeat;"></td>
If you visit the property table on the w3 website they have a list: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/propidx.html click the individual items on the second column of the background property for samples and a full explanation.
You can omit whatever you want from those values (e.g. the color).
<td style="background: #ffffff url(graphics.png) left no-repeat;"></td>

That works beautifully! Thanks! I'm placing some nav buttons on top of that background image, and because I've used a drop shadow on it they're off center (but not really..just look it). Within the framework of that data cell is there some way to to position the x factor more precisely so that it looks centered in the main part of the background image?

instead of left you could use:
0px 0px (that's left then top I think)
middle/center (can't remember - check the spec if you want more info on that.)
