I'm usin a template cuz it's easy to change the whole site that way. Anyway someone in the other thread suggested I add a triangle thingy to the content portion of my site to make it fit better. The only problem is now, well i'll let you guys look. http://chrismg187.home.attbi.com/bug.htm


any suggestions on how to fix this? It only happens when the main content part gets longer.

EEP!!!

Your hyperlinks are pointing to your C: drive. For example,

<IMG SRC="file:///C|/Coding/Webpage/Design/images/template_01.gif" WIDTH=150 HEIGHT=49>

This usually happens when you "Save As ..." and put the file in another directory. DW is quirky that way. Change the links so they point to the proper files in (I assume) your "images" directory ...

<IMG SRC="images/template_01.gif" WIDTH=150 HEIGHT=49>

EDIT: To avoid this, I moved files around in Windows Explorer. There's an option in the DW settings that might stop inserting local paths -- I don't know how well it works ... you can be the guinea pig. Edit --> Preferences --> General --> Update Links When Moving Files. Change the value from "Always" to "Prompt" or "Never," whichever suits you.

OK, First of all that's just gross.

Now... I figured out the problem which i ws originally asking about (no it wasn't the no images thing, i didn't know about that until juju pointed it out. Now I need to know how to make the text in the box on the left and on the yellow navbar unable to change size. Any suggestions?

if you use the "site" function in dreamweaver, it actually works really well. especially if you maintain multiple sites.
