I tried to set this up for viewers using 800 x 600 resolution. But if they have the ‘Standard Buttons’ installed, the page overflows the screen. I can vary the page width but I find no way to reduce the height. For instance, the spacing between lines of text is more than I need. And , in examining the HTML code, I find no way to reduce the height of the table. The last row of the table (Don & Barnhart Depot) could be narrower. When I set up the table, I recall ‘Cell Spacing’ and ‘Cell Padding’ options. But I cannot find them after the table has been populated- if that is what controls the height. Using ‘Front Page Express’, I find no handles on the table to change its size. Maybe a different editor would do more?<br />

<!-- e --><a href="mailto:D[email protected]">[email protected]</a><!-- e --><!--content-->I'm not sure about your height problem - it doesn't look bad from my browser at all (IE 6.0), but maybe you could try centering the table - just put align="center" in the table tag. It looked more off center on my screen than the hieght... :confused: Just a thought!<br />
<br />
About an editor - I heard of this one here and it really is good, it's Evrsoft's 1st page, and it's free.:) The URL is <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.evrsoft.com/">http://www.evrsoft.com/</a><!-- m --><!--content-->If you run a resolution higher than 800 x 600, or if you don't display any toolbars, it would fit Ok and would be off-center. But thanks anyhow. <br />
As to the 1st Page 2000, it has been discontinued at the site you listed. But I found it here:<br />

Will look it over. <br />
Don<!--content-->huh? what is "Standard Buttons"?<br />
<br />
and the tabel is easy code and if you didn't rely on an editor you would get it no problem.<br />
<br />
<table border="12" width="500" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"<br />
bordercolor="#FF00FF"><br />
<br />
there is the width. just change the number to something you like.<br />
<br />
<br />
<table border="12" width="500" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"<br />
bordercolor="#FF00FF" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><br />
<br />
that is all you need. and it didn't run off on my page of 800x600<!--content-->"Standard Buttons" also "Address Bar" often appear at the top of one's browser. Right click a blank area in the menu bar and you will see them- at least in IE5.5. Many users don't know what they are or how to get rid of them. So they take up space in one's window height and leave less for the web page. I was hoping to reduce the height of subject page to compensate. But I gess it is their problem.<br />
I run 1024 x 768 so I don't have the problem. But the majority run 800 x 600 and that is what most web designers set their page up for.<br />
Thanks for your replies.<!--content-->why remove the buttons? they help me a lot so UI don't get rid of them. in fact I don't many people that do. but if you reduce your border the page will shrink a little.<br />
<br />
I do get the scroll bar going down but that is natural for as page that is bigger than 800x600<!--content-->
