Exclamation I am going to go insane
Hi there guys, first time posting but long follower, anyway I am using dreamweaver cs3 and I come from a graphic design background and I figue this would be easy....well think again, all I am tying to do is somehow duplicate the look of a page
named red


I have all the elements but just cannot get it!!! ok here are the things that are going terribly wrong

by the way I am in a 1920 by 1280 monitor and whenever you extend the page everything stays very nice centered on this red page and I cannot do that because:

I try using a black picture .png so that I can use that as my center and write all the page elements in this black image in the middle of the page
I want to insert all kinds of stuff to this black space in the middle I already have my gray backgound set that is no problem, the problem is inserting text and images to this black image in the middle and make everything stay centered even when you extend the window

help please

help please

Can you link to a page or provide some code that you're working with please?

Are you using tables or DIV's?

Use div tags... They will make your life SO much easier...

Code:
<div style="position:absolute; top:Y; left:X"></div>


LOL! I got that right first time... :p

Ok, you don't necessarily need to use DIV's.. but, if you're using a table, create a class for it in your CSS;

Code:
.mainTable {
	padding-left:50%;
        position:relative;
}


and then add the class to your table;

Code:
<table class="mainTable">
... etc.


This will keep the center of your table aligned 50% to the left of the right edge of their screen resolution.

Lol, it makes life so much easier, coding big pages and stuff and it's great for consistency.

Best thing about it is it's not really that hard to learn, either
