Ah, I had forgotten about border="0" on the table tag. I was setting border properties and such via css on the table cells but had forgotten about the old school table html tag options. Show's how much table layout I'm doing these days. Your suggestion seems to be solving my problem. And by solid background color, I meant setting a bgcolor on the cells in a row (or the row itself) and that was being interrupted by spaces of white because of the cellspacing default on the table tag.
