Did you refresh your browser when you checked the 2nd time? The background
is white here.

Many thanks for your prompt reply. I followed your instructions and
although
I changed the browser color when I go it on www it was still black. I hope
the following will take you to the page.

I also checked "Open published web page in browser" but it keeps coming up
with the message "This presentation contains content that your browser may
not be able to show properly. This presentation was optimized for more
recent
versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer." As it is version 6 I do not
understand why it comes up with that message so I have to go to internet
to
check and it is still the black background - your advice much appreciated.

Well, that link doesn't work for me, but I suspect if you go into the
options when you do the File/Save as Webpage, you'll find where you can
change those colors. (File/Save as Webpage, then click the Publish
button,
then Web Options.)

There should be a place for "navigation controls with a colors dropdown
where you can choose browser colors, white on black, etc.

If you want something other than those selection options, you'll have to
manually edit the HTML code.

I have created and published a presentation to the internet


(mhtml:http://members.cox.net/lessonstei/CA.../P_HistoryofCA
..mht!P_HistoryofCA_files/frame.htm)
- I have created a nice background to the slides and that is ok.
However
as
you can see the background outside the slide area and also the title
area
is
black and I would like to change this - help appreciated - thanks.
