just define ‘bgcolor’ inside of the body tag.

```php

<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">

```

#FFFFFF is white, and you can change it to any color.

If you are using an image for your background then it won’t mess anything up. Its only when you don’t define a bgcolor, because then it uses the system default, which on most computers is white, but some people change theirs…like me. 🙂
