I've been dong webpages with html editors for a few years now (mainly my own goofy little site), and have pretty much just done them to suit my fancy.
Now I have someone who wants me to do a small site for them.
I don't have too much experience or knowledge of tables, and I am using a dreamweaver template that has them.
I'm not sure if I'm using the right terms and descriptions, but it's a simple 4 page website, and all the templates for each page are the same. You
just customize them the way you want. The problem I'm having, is that the templates come with sample text and a picture. And I like the overall size
of the layout the way it is for each page. When I remove the sample text and picture...the template gets smaller when I save it.
Another way to describe what's happening is when I take out the sample text, etc...and put in my own...the whole frame (table collapses because I'm
putting in less text, etc. I would like to know how you can "lock" the table using Dreamweaver, so that it will stay exactly the size you have it, so
it will only allow just so much text & pictures, etc., and neither collapses or expands despite it's content.
Jeez...I hope that makes sense!
Thanks in advance
