Hey guys I am in need of some help as I am fairly new to html and making it work for me, I do have experience editing templates for use but this is my first site I am building from scratch.
I am currently working for myself and I am trying to cut costs by coding for myself.
Now on to my problems,
This is the site layout I have planned
http://yfrog.com/5nbasiclayoutg
The white transparent blocks are for flash content as are the black blocks in the low portion.
The buttons are in between the 2 white transparent blocks.
What I would like to do is in dreamweaver create a series of tables to correspond to the areas that I will be adding content like the areas I will be adding flash content.
But I am unable to line everything up the way I want it to. When I try not seems to line up into the boxes I have outlined in the layout.
I am hoping i can't find some help here, as I have checked many tutorials and I cannot find one that actually shows me what to do.
My other problem is since the save for web size of the layout without the buttons is minuscule I was hoping having to avoid slicing the site into man part to optimize loading. I did however slice the buttons but when I try to make the layout go to the background so I can align the buttons accordingly according to the layout it never works out and the buttons end up going under the image.
Sorry for the long post but I am hoping to get some help.
Thanks.
