Stretch a <TABLE> background image to fill the entire cell

[Water Cooler v2]

I want to stretch the image so that it fills the entire cell width and
height. How do I do that?

<TD background="bg.gif" width="100%" height="100%"
style="background-repeat: no-repeat;">
So far I have done that but it doesn't seem to work. I think the height
and width get applied to the cell instead of the image. Is there a way
around this?

You asked this in alt.html. Please don't multipost.

Not yet, at least not directly as you asked it. Stay tuned for CSS 3.
Or, rather than making it a background image, maybe it can be an IMG
element inside of an absolutely-positioned DIV set to be "behind" the
cell's contents or something. But I don't know a whole lot about
layering things that way.
