    Default question...

    I just started creating web pages in dreamweaver... i created a website www.firststepsagencyonline.com/index1.html.

    I created gray panels on both sides of the page, but the problem is that when the website is viewed with different settings and browsers, the gray is either perfect, not filling the extra space, or filling to much...

    Can someone help me?

    Thank you,
    Bryan

    I'm somewhere where I cannot view your site, please post your code. Best I can figure form here is that you need to use percentages. around 15% will most likely do it. Then you also need to take whatever is in the middle (the table, DIV) and find its correct percentage which 70% should do if I'm understanding you correctly. Unless there is only text. To help you more I need the HTML and any external CSS.

    Also please read: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=24866, what applies is please use a descriptive title.

    Ooooooo... i see whats going on... its all <div> tags...you should either do two things:
    1. Convert all or most *mainly outside ones* to table tags.
    2. Put a table around the whole page with the following code:
    Code:
    <table style="width:581px; align: center;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
    <!--the stuff of your page *all the <div> tags* goes here -->
    </table>
    That should work...

    Ahhh. I can't see code so I had no clue. He could also put a DIV around it all could he not? Thats what I do. Correct me if I'm wrong, so I can remove it. Don't want bad tips.

    EDIT: He would need "margin: auto;" (for the DIV), and "text-align: center;" (on the BODY tag). If he wanted to not center text in one, just specify text-align inside those.

    Did you try what Rock said?

    EDIT: I think I might see the problem. You customized it for your resolution. You need to go back through and replace all the XXpx with XX%, and size it up for your resolution, for the most part it will look exactly the same in all resolutions, unless images stretch it.

    Just replace the width and height values (00px) with 1-100% (leave off the px, just "height: 20%;") change it then check until you get it right. If your using a program, the program should have an option between percent of window or something like that.

    EDIT: Durrr your using Dreamweaver, my bad.
