The table might know things, sometimes because the info is close 
at hand (see below). But generally it is the /page/ that knows 
or does not know where the css info is. And the table perhaps 
can be said to know via the page. Anyway, though it can /not-know/ 
in an infinite number of ways, it /can/ know in at least 3 ways: 
 
1. The style info is inline 
 
<table style="background-color:yellow"><tr><td>Possibly lovely 
layout</td></tr></table> 
 
2. The style info is in the head of the doc 
 
<head> 
.... 
 
<style type="text/css"> 
 
table { 
 
background-color: yellow; 
  
} 
 
</style> 
 
.... 
 
</head> 
 
 
3. The style info is in a separate sheet linked by reference in 
the head  
 
<head> 
 
.... 
 
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="main.css"> 
 
....  
 
</head>  
 
 
By the way, Ram, how big are you?
