okay vash ... a new window has appeared called 'save for web' ... check pic below and click where indicated (in my case the pic shows the Internet Explorer logo ... but it could show the Opera, Netscape or other browser logo) ... more info to follow in next post

vash this is the final part ..... your browser will have opened .. at the top is your image and under it is your image information followed by the 'table' you are looking for (scroll down) .... refer pic below ... good luck

hmmn, .. vash maybe we have an interpretation problem here

.. I'm interpreting your needs incorrectly

... Frontpage is OK (I've used it to see how an html code works - but I think there is a problem with some hosts not liking Frontpage extensions, so you could have a problem there) .... I suggest you try this link http://htmlgoodies.earthweb.com/ .... in the menu on the left of their website you will find alot of help on html tables ... hope this is what you are looking for

OMG dude

im being annoying eh? but u misunderstood me again! ahahahahahahaha. my aim is 'wantedcsmaniac' heres my problem........ after i did my design with photoshop, i went to image ready and sliced them up! then i saved optimize as... u know, then that became a website! when i try to upload my page on frontpage.... picture are all messed up, they're on the proper places

or when i use dreamweaver, it looks fine, but i can't add text! i think i need to put the slices together with a table.

Actually vash what you need to remember is that when creating/slicing your image design in Photoshop, you must slice out an area where your text will go later. This will usually just be an empty looking space with no specific image in it, just a solid colour.

Then when you open the html file in Dreamweaver, you need to DELETE the image that's in your text area space. That way, just an empty table cell will be left, and you can add your text at that point.

And you need to do this for every text area you have in your design.

Ian is right though... use DW, not FP -- for your own piece of mind.

PS: if this isn't making any sense to you still, then i'd suggest some studying of basic html is in order. It's easy to learn, and won't take long to figure out. [righton]
