Hello,

I'm trying to build a nice navigation bar, I Download ed a dreamweaver extension based on <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.alistapart.com/articles/dropdowns/">http://www.alistapart.com/articles/dropdowns/</a><!-- m --> , I did this becasue I don't know code and I am lazy...I have a couple of problems though, I don't know how to position the bar and set the size (Length)...I have looked at the code and played around with stuff...but am still lost...anyway you can look at it here:

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.crabhand.co.uk/help.htm">http://www.crabhand.co.uk/help.htm</a><!-- m -->

There is a little bit of an explanation there aswell...

If anyone can suggest anything or can point me in any good direction I'll be very grateful...

Cheers!! :)When you say you don't know how to position it, do you mean you don't know how to put it in a different table cell?

If so, the easiest way might be to take one or two of these :

<tr>
<th scope="col"> </th>
</tr>

and put them above this:

<tr>
<th scope="col"><ul id="nav">
<li> <a href=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"#" title="Home"><strong>Home</strong></a>

As for length... do you mean the width? To change this, go here :

<table width="695" border="1" align="center" cellpadding="1">
<tr>
<th width="685" align="left" valign="top" scope="col"><div align="center">Crabahnd logo will be in here </div></th>

and change the table width.

If you don't want to change the table width, just the menu width, go here :

ul {
font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
padding: 0em;
margin: auto;
list-style: none;
background-color: #999;
border-bottom-width: 1px;
border-bottom-style: solid;
border-bottom-color: #333;
width: 100%;

and change the width to either another % or a px value (eg. 500px).

I have to say though that you really shouldn't be using a table for your layout. There's lots of info here about the best way to set up a webpage and it's not about putting everything in tables.

If I misunderstood your question, please let me know.

Good luck.
