Default Help for HTML newbie - 08-02-2004 , 06:29 PM






I am doing a website for a friend. I am a network type person so do not do
a lot with web design. I have a few questions.

How do I make sure that a site is going to work in most reloutions. Ie 800
by 600 and 1024 by 768 etc. Will Nested Tables do this?

Also is there anyway I can have my images close to edge and top where there
is no white space. or should I put some kind of background in there.

If anyone has a chance and can help the site is here

Thanks very much

Rob

I do not see any problem with your site.

In your table tag, you have
width="878"
which stops your page spreading out on a 1024 by 768 or larger screen.
On a smaller screen, 640 by 480 and 800 by 600, scroll bars appear to
let the user scroll across the width of the page.

The only change I would sugest is to add
align="center"
to your table tag, then your page would apear in the center of the
screen on larger monitors, instead of being on the left of the screen.

Don't forget to change line 3 from "Untitled Document" to "Hide a
Hook" or something.

You already have that, in your body tag you have:
leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0" marginheight="0"
marginwidth="0" topmargin="0" bottommargin="0"

and in your table tag you have
border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"
