Fireworks sliced image .htm file

#1

Hi, I've made an image in fireworks with a slice in it and exported it to an
..htm file and imported it into dreamweaver. This is all fine and dandy except
that, because fireworks .htm file is a table in Dreamweaver, I don't know how
to get the image completely against the top of the screen. Any suggestions?

Link to an external stylesheet (using DW's CSS editor), or embed a
stylesheet in your code (between <head> and </head>) with the following
style in it (embedded shown for cut-n-paste convenience) (assuming you want
zero margins) -

<style type="text/css">

</style>

you could also try

body { margin : 0px 0px 0px 0px; padding:0px; }

or

body { margin : 0px; padding:0px; }

as a shorthand method.

This will take care of the margins in IE4+ and NN6. To take care of NN4x,
you will need to use MODIFY | Page Properties... and set the two right hand
margin fields (marginwidth and marginheight) to 0 (DMX and below).

Since you are still using inline margin specs in the body tag, this method
won't validate (and is not easy to do in DMX2004). To get completely valid
code that works for all
browsers in any version of DW, change your stylesheet as shown below -

body {
padding: 0;
margin: 0 -10px 0 -10px;
/*/*/margin: 0 0 0 0; /* */
}

Make sure your body margins are set to 0 to get your table flush top.

<style type="text/css">

</style>

Consider using CSS to lay out your slices instead of tables. You will love the
flexibility.

Or, at least learn to create the table yourself. Fireworks tables tend to be a
little more complex than they need to be. -And, when it comes time to
troubleshoot your layout, you will understand it better if you created it
yourself.

Good luck!

Usually because the 'operator' has sliced on a Manhattan street map plan.
If the slices are in a regular checkerboard matrix, the tables will be
simple and easy.

Definitely.
