The color of the border is black in IE. There is no way to change that except use CSS like I showed you previously. But it seems that Netscape and Mozilla are picking up the color of the text you have in the body tag:<br />
<br />
<body text=#FFFAFA bgColor=-#000000><br />
<br />
and applying that color to the border of the images. Change the color to red:<br />
<br />
<body text=red bgColor=#000000><br />
<br />
and you will see what I mean. I am not sure if that is considered a bug in Netscape and Mozilla or not.<!--content-->Just a note, border colors will render as the same color as the link color within the image tag. They were designed to be that way. I guess the next best thing was the body text color declaration in this case.<!--content-->awesome thanks for the help<!--content-->
