stevethedog 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2007 Hello all.I've been using Dreamweaver for a couple of months now and I'm learning as I go. I'm pretty much totally new to making websites so I'm happy with how things are going at the moment.I feel there is something super obvious that I can't work out how to do though.This is my site. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/I'd like to be able to have like a banner down one side so that I could have all of my links in there and possibly the adverts. The way it is just now means that I have to push the table and important stuff of the site further down the page when I'd actually like it all alongside my links.I thought I'd cracked this when I done something like add vertical frame but whenever you then clicked on one of the links they would only open inside this small frame rather than over the whole page.Does this make sense? If someone could point me out to a dreamweaver made ultra easy page that would be most helpful too. I'm quite bad for jumping straight into the deep end I think.Cheers,stevethedog Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jlhaslip 4 Report post Posted October 3, 2007 I'm thinking that you need a three column layout something like this one: http://forums.xisto.com Fill the left and right sidebars with your links and have your main page content in the middle? You will need a gage for each link, or a Content Management system like snews http://www.snewscms.com/ or cutenews, perhaps. google that one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saint_Michael 3 Report post Posted October 3, 2007 Its not dreamweaver its tables in general that make it more difficult in trying to something like your asking. It could be done, but you would see need a series of tables in fixed positions and thats just a pain, so like haslip mention go with a 2 or 3 column layout. I would go to this site has it has various bare bone templates in CSS that have 1-4 column layouts and then code from there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
