Simplest Chime Legend Table

A one-cell table is used for the color key legend below the graphics. This allows the background to be black, while allowing easy control of the size, margins, and content via HTML. A GIF image could be used instead, but would take more time to edit, and would not auto-size to a percentage of the window width to align with the similarly auto-sized Chime plug-in.

To see the HTML for the table, go back to the previous page, and use Netscape's View menu to view the Source. Note the use of <align left> which allows text to wrap next to the Chime plug-in (or an image or table), and <br clear=left> which moves subsequent content down until the left margin is clear.

The chime plug-in itself was not put into a table cell because when I tried this, the only way I could control the size was to give absolute pixel dimensions (rather than size as percentage of window size as presently done). Absolute pixel sizes seemed undesirable since the screen resolution and window size of browsers will vary.
