Editing HTML in Dreamweaver
 

Hello all:

I just sat down and started delving into the nuts and bolts of Dreamweaver
and came up with the following so far...

http://users.rcn.com/solitude439/

I know it looks somewhat amateurish but what I'm trying to do is to get
the graphics that I'm using for the top and the sides to fill out in any
resolution. Right now, the left side and the bottom cut off at a certain
point which if Joe Shmoe with the high res plasma screen wanted to view my
web page it would only fill out one corner of the browser. If you look at
http://www.wahoocomputers.com the graphics for the top and bottom of the
page fill out nicely. How would I set up my page to fill out this way?

Thanks In Advance.

D.C.

It doesn't. It addresses another problem.

Please don't top post. This isn't "Jeopardy".

Okay...

Anyway, what's the OTHER problem? You're leaving me in suspense! :)

I don't know, which is why I haven't made something up just for the
sake of taking up space here. :) But I hope you get that enormous-page
issue worked out. And thanks for quitting top posting.

Your welcome! I'm a top poster from back in the day! That might be due to
the fact that Deja News (now Google) used to place the cursor at the
beginning of your reply instead of the end. I was addicted to Deja News.
Sorry, bad habits are hard to break I guess!!

Anyway, I'm sure that site will come in handy!

Thanks again!

It's the user's hardly-awesome responsibility to use arrow or page-down
keys, or the mouse, to post elsewhere (snipping on the way down).

If for no reason than to keep remind you that that page is waaaaay too
large at over a half a megabyte.

You're welcome.

First, your page is way too heavy. I will assume this is because of
how you made your Flash object. Lose the flash or make it work right
by importing the images dynamically. This will totally lighten up your
page. Also, look at "swish" (google it for URL) it is a great tool for
making flash for people that don't have a clue about flash.

Na it looks like everything else out there.

Then stop setting a height. Also do a google for "design any size" or
wait around and someone will give you the links here. It is a topic
discussed quite often here.

Oh, *that's* why it didn't finish loading. I was going to tell DC but I
think now he knows.
