How can I get a 'div' with no top margin? Or is there a better method
for doing this? Example of problem at:

try
leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"

in the BODY tag

That /is/ a div without a top margin ;-)
It's a page with a top padding though. Either on <html> or <body> -
fiddle to find the culprit

Why are you mixing HTML and CSS for the look though? I'd change
'bgcolor' to background-color to go inside the style attribute, and
align:center on the div seems superfluous, as you already set a width
and a left and right margin in the style too.

Thanks. Works like a charm.

Hiya, Els, and thanks. Why HTML? Because this is quick&dirty
experimentation, and it's easier to tyoe and edit with HTML with
"style" sub-directives. As I get it worked out, I'll use real CSS.

this could be achieved far easier in css without relying on depreciated
tags...
body{margin:0;}

I didn't mean the style attributes, I meant things like align="center"
and bgcolor="#d4d4d4". I can see the benefit of inline styles when
experimenting, but I mean: if you already have
style="font-size: 4em; font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;"
why not change it into
style="background-color: #d4d4d4; font-size: 4em; font-family:
helvetica, sans-serif;"
instead of adding bgcolor="#d4d4d4d" ?

Better:
body{margin:0;padding:0;}
