I agree with Suzanne on this one. Even I use DW to do my sites in but I can still get to the code and change it where necessary and anyone as a serious website designer shouldn't be having to deisgn to the limitations of a program!

KnightRobby, what program might that be? If it's something someone knows, they may be able to tell you how to fix your code. Or you can post an url and we can tell you outside the program.

I'm glad you like the program, but if you can't control the output code, it's not excellent at all.

Nevermind...my program that I am working with is excellent and I will not get rid of it. I know for a fact there is a code to get rid of the horizontal scroll bar. I will get it figured out sooner or later...

Sorry, but I am not a major HTML coder, so I rely a lot on programs

What the heck is this advice? I think you mean, necrotic, that divs with absolute positioning cause problems? Floated CSS layouts are more compatible, so far, though we have hopes for the future of absolute positioning options. They can be used together, but some caution/education is required.

Tables are not bad things in and of themselves. They are perfectly useful for tabular data, for instance!

But if the lad can't change his table code, he's not going to be able to start using divs, now, is he?

If you use divs don't use positioning. It doesn't show the same in every browser. Tables would be easier.

Or you could use DIVs instead of tables :S

Or just open the file in Notepad saves on the renaming etc.

just right click and view source in IE, change whats needed, save as filename and upload it.

... I'm sorry, what? You don't have complete control of your HTML code?

Get a new program, or learn to code it by hand, hon. You shouldn't be slave to incompetent programming.
