Making my websites fit to page correctly? Dreamweaver 8, Image Ready, Photoshop, Fireworks if need be, HELP!?

Question

So i was working on a hobby site, and it was looking pretty decent and whatnot and i was asked to make it adjust to the size of the users browser, or to be more exact 80% of the browser width, and i had no problem doing that, and it looked fine on my little window inside dreamweaver and i uploaded it and wouldntcha know it!!

here is the link to the site. http://www.sonsofchaos.net


I want my text field to adjust along with the upper and lower parts of the page, i have the backgrounds on those parts set as black as you can see, but it seems to be only ( or mostly ) stretching the menu (left side) is there a way to do this better?

Help!

Answer 1

man! well... i like your red background, but you are using way to many and try to reduce that.



if you want to use table, according to your template

you don't need any thing more than first row on the top

second row with 2 columns in there, and last row at the bottom.



then fix the width of the 2 columns. you have to tell at least one of the column how width you want it to be, or it will do what it is doing now. css will do that job for you.



remember! don't use that much row and column in one table. it just too confusing and harder to control.



and you better learn more on using css, it will really help you.

Answer 2

Hello, make different tables for each section:

Header one table

Left menu another table

Middle(text area) another one

Footer another one

In this way everything will remain to fixed size except the text in the middle on wich you can add as much as you can cause will not modify the rest.



Same you can try if your site is builded with divisions (div)

You can try using frames too or a iframe for text (not recommended)



Hope this helped.
