Hi Ayo,

You can do this the traditional way in the body tag:
<BODY background="#F5F5F5">

Or use the newer CSS method:
body {
background-color: #F5F5F5;
}

The CSS method is good, because if you need different background colours throughout your page, you can do the same, except use DIVs.

eg.
.group1 {
background-color: red;
}
.group2 {
background-color: green;
}

<div class="group1">I am in the red zone</div>
<div class="group2">I am in the green zone</div>

Then use other properties in each group to control layout, alignment and size of each class.

Hope this helps.

Regards, Rich
