Oh on a similar note, does anyone find it the least bit strange that some of the most paranoid people on the planet still carry around supermarket & CVS savings cards? They know who you are, & they know everything you buy. My dad drinks a lot of this particular brand of lemonade. Now we get coupons in the mail for it all the time.

First of all, I've already accepted the fact that I no longer have any privacy. Everytime you buy something with a credit card or a check the whole world knows about it. Preventing people from breaking copyright laws & distributing child porn is insignificant compared to that. I think it's rediculous that people think that they are somehow forced to do whatever Microsoft says. It really is a take it or leave it technology. If you don't like the features of the new Windows why would you start using Lynx? That would be like switching from Pepsi to Coke beacuase you don't like the new Seira Mist. Why not just keep using XP?I invite any one who feels seriously threatened by Microsoft to throw out their TV & PC & go move to a shack in the woods for a few months. Then tell me how you feel about operating systems. I'm not saying it wouldn't be nice to have a private internet connection, I'm just saying a lot of people feel like there world will end because of Microsoft but the reality is that the computer world as we know it would not exist without Microsoft.At the moment I actually use a Mac becuase my school made me buy one. I absolutely love it. I guess that makes me even more of an odball than Lynx users, more expensive & less compatible. It doesn't suffer from any windows viruses, & it's never crashed, ever!

In all of the browsers I'm familiar with, you don't have control over any maximum parameters in a table. If the image or text you inserted in a table is larger than a cell or table height/width, the table will stretch to accommodate it. The HTML code you are looking for is not a table. The only way to add scroll bars is with a frame. One possible option would be making your home page a frameset & putting the navigation buttons in the top frame & the updates in the bottom frame. http://www.htmlhelp.com/design/frames/usage/ The solution I think you are really looking for is called an inline frame. http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/special/iframe.html

Is eating anything morally correct? What about plants? They're alive. The only thing I believe is that any system of judging what should live & what should die is inherently flawed due to lack of data. First of all nobodies really sure what even happens to humans when they die. If you truly believe you?ll go to Heaven or some kind of physical or spiritual afterlife/higher form of existence then wouldn?t being killed be not so bad? If you believe in the simple termination of self-awareness after death then it really won?t matter when you die. You could die today or 100 years from now & you wouldn?t really be upset about it, at least not after you die.Secondly what criteria could you possibly use to explain your choices as to which living things should die & which ones should be protected? Who are you to say that puppy dogs & kittens should live while mice & mosquitoes are acceptable to kill. That?s not a moral system, that?s the human condition, a they?re cute so we keep them mentality. If killing anything alive goes against some greater moral standard, what would give you the right to discriminate against some life forms while not others. How can you say creatures with brains deserve to live while plants don?t? Shouldn?t they deserve the right to live because they?re alive, & not because they?re similar to humans? What about bacteria? Your body?s white blood cells kill everyday whether you want them to or not. Which brings up the question, is it okay to kill in-self defense?(Preserve your own life by taking some one or something else?s) If it?s okay to do that then what does it matter whether you were attacked or not. If you have a right to kill to keep yourself alive then there are clearly exceptions to this almighty don?t kill anything moral.Finally, everything dies. The cow I ate for lunch today would have died regardless of whether I paid for it to be killed or not. It would have had a few more years of life in the context of eternity. I for one always say I want to live as long as possible but that?s really only being avoidant of something that will happen. I can?t fathom death so I put it off as long as I can as if it?ll go away with time, when really every day just brings me closer.

The other posts described solutions to your problem, but from your post, I can assume that you do not yet understand some simple beginner concepts essential to web design.An important thing that beginners to HTML may not understand is that HTML is just the text language that Internet documents are written in. This means that an HTML file does not include any images (in your case page dividers are images).It is also very important to understand the concept of absolute linking vs. relative linking.When something on your page is linked ?absolutely? it means that it is linked to an exact location on the Internet. No matter what computer your HTML file containing the link is on, it will always link to one specific spot on the Internet. Absolute links start with http:// etc. containing an address on the Internet.When something on your page is linked ?relatively? the location of the linked file is dependant upon the computer your HTML page is on. Relative links do not start with http://. They are simple file names or a path to a folder, followed by a file name. So if ?yourpage1.html? contains a link to ?yourpage2.html? the link goes to ?yourpage2.html? in the same folder as ?yourpage1.html?. If there is no ?yourpage2.html? in the same folder the link will not work. The same is true of the images on your page. If ?yourpage1.html? has an image from source ?yourpagedivider1.jpg? or ?yourpage1background.jpg? those images will only show up if they are in the same folder as ?yourpage1.html?What does this mean?Well if you send your boss an HTML file that includes references to files that are not on the Internet, you will need to send him everything. You will also have to make sure that the files go into the right folders on your boss?s end as well.If you want to go relative link to another folder use the following example.Assume ?webpagefiles? is a folder created on your desktop & ?webimages? is a folder created inside of ?webpagefiles?. ?mypage1.html? is contained inside of the ?webpagefiles? folder.Desktop---webpagefiles------webimagesOn ?mypage1.html?To link to an image in ?webimages? use ?webimages/myimage1.jpg?To link to a page on your desktop use ?../filename.html?SolutionFor a beginner put all of your files into one folder & make sure all of the links & images are working there. Then put all of the files into an archive file or a .zip file. If you have trouble with that you can always attach them one at a time.

There are a lot of expensive programs out there like Dreamweaver & Frontpage. If you use thoes you don't really need to know very much HTML, at least not for design purposes. You seem like you may be on a little more of a budget. One thing that all awesome looking websites have in common are good graphics. Although they must be placed on your page using HTML, the creation of graphics also is not a part of HTML. I highly recomend Flash for making graphics, but again, that is very expensive, & it will take a lot longer to learn than HTML.
