Could someone look at my site and advise

Sorry to be a bother. I am trying to create a site in dreamweaver:
www.themeetingplaceinc.org

the problem is the site creates a scrollbar at the bottom of the page and you
have to scroll a little to view the navagation menu. I want to get rid of that
bottom scrollbar. Can someone tell me how to get rid of the scrollbar and make
the site where the menu appears without the need to scroll?

some nice posters on here told me to check my pages "size" but im afraid im
new to dreamweaver and am still learning, so i dont know how to do that. If
anyone could take the time to look at the site and advise me i would be
grateful. again its: www.themeetingplaceinc.org

thanks so much for any help

Actually, the site is pretty OK. What you need to add the final touch
and to adjust margins (to get rid of the scrollbar) is to apply some CSS
here and there.

CSS means "Cascading Style Sheet" and it's a way to control fonts,
colors, margins and a whole bunch of other attributes to every single
element you have. The spiffy thing about it is that you create this as a
stand-alone document (the stylesheet), then link the pages to it. Hence,
you can change only the stylesheet, and all the pages will change
accordingly. (That's the "cascading" part). Furthermore, CSS is the way
sites should be formatted nowadays, since e.g. font-tags and lots of
other stuff is deprecated.

Start with fixing the margins for the body by doing this:

1. Go to the CSS palette and "create a new style" (Click the +)
2. In the dialog window that opens, select the options "external style
sheet", "re-define tag", and select "body" from the drop down menu. You
will be asked where to save the doc (i.e. the stylesheet you're about to
create). Navigate to the top level of your site, create a new folder and
name it "styles" or something and save the doc in there as "styles.css"
or similar.
3. Now, all the CSS options will open in the dialog window. Find
"margins" and set them to "0" (zero).
4. Save.

Something like that....

Find some tutorials on CSS, e.g. here:

http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp

...and then format your tables, texts, etc.

Good luck.

Try only "100%" - not "102%" and the scrolbar should disappear. ;-)

<table width="102%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2"
bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
