Hi,<br />
<br />
Could someone please tell me how I can get my webpages layout to look like This one (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.jasons.com.au/sitemap.cfm?country=aus">http://www.jasons.com.au/sitemap.cfm?country=aus</a><!-- m -->) <br />
<br />
in the way that I can have a box thingo inside the main window that can have tables and all inside of it<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
Mike<!--content-->look at their code, all designers when they come across a nice site, if they don't know how to do it already, will look at the source code to get pointers. What we don't do is steal the entire code, but this is such a common layout, remove all the content and you will be left with the layout coding, i imagine loads of tables.<br />
<br />
right mouse click - view source
<!--content-->I dont want to steal anyones design...<br />
<br />
I got dreamweaverMX and I was wondering how I can use it to make a similar design not a copy!<br />
<br />
I have tried a table with a different colour backgrand with other table inside that but it sucks as in doesnt work!<br />
<br />
I have also had a look at creating a new layer thing<br />
and I have looked at designing a CSS thingo<br />
<br />
could u tell me the right way to do it please <br />
the website was just so u could understand what I was aiming to do...<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
Mike<!--content-->ok, no worries, unfortunately i don't use dreamweaver and can't guide you on how to use it.<br />
The website you linked to is made of tables.<br />
the top image is in a cell by itself, it's rounded corners are transparent images (gif) so the body background color shows through, then there's the main content area which will be one large table cell, the bottom table row (with the copyright notice and rounded corners) is 3 cells wide, with the two cells at the ends holding the small rouded gifs, again with transparent parts to allow the background color to show through ( it may not be transparent but just the same color as the background)and the center cell the copyright.<br />
<br />
the code for that layout would be something like:<br />
<br />
<body style="background:#3333ff;"><br />
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><br />
<tr><td style="width:600px;" colspan="3"><br />
<img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"headerimage.gif" width="600" height="150"></td></tr><br />
<tr><td colspan="3"> main content here</td></tr><br />
<tr><br />
<td style="width:15px;">left bottom corner image</td><br />
<td> copyright</td><br />
<td style="width:15px;">right bottom corner image</td><br />
</tr></table><br />
<br />
maybe someone who uses dreamweaver can guide you better, but you can switch to code/layout view<!--content-->Just save the page to disk. Delete all the content right back to the basic HTML tag structure and then go from there. Validate the code before you start adding any content to it.<br />
<br />
No-one can really claim copyright on <table><tr><td>... blah blah snippets of code.<!--content-->If you are after the rounded corners, you will need a program like PhotoShop. Those are all imgs rather than HTML tables. Im not sure if that is what you.<!--content-->Thanks for all information!<br />
<br />
is photoshop the best program for making those rounded corners?... <br />
<br />
Thanks a lot and any other information will be great!<br />
