I made a layout background with a graphic that overlaps the text area, and I made the iframes for the text and everything, but there's two problems with the layout...first, the top part of the graphic is cut off by the iframe, and I need to know how to put the graphic over top and position it just right so that it doesn't look weird. The other thing is, I can't make the borders of the iframes go away...please help with either problem...

well i'm a visual person so i'd need to see it to see exactly the problem and fix it. There might be others that can help you without seeing it. You coudl upload it to geocities for testing purposes.

you'd probably have to make the iframe smaller in height so it wouldn't cut off the top of the car.
I don't see any borders, you mean scrollbar?

no, I meant borders, but I fixed that, and I know I could make the iframe smaller, but I kind of wanted the text to go a bit behind the car at the bottom, and I know it can be done, coz I've seen it on some website somewhere, but I can't remember which one. I think it was something to do with layers and stuff...

since the car is on your background you're not really gonna be able to do that. You'd have to cut the car out and position it.

Ok, I'm kinda confused...basically I should just make the background with just the text and boxes and put the car on top of the iframe? How could I do that?

you could just put it as part of the page on the iframe or you could use absolutes for the background, the iframes and the car part of it.

how would I put it as part of the iframe? and if I used absolutes, does that mean I have to have the exact number of pixels and do absolute positioning?
sorry about all these questions...I'm really bad at all this still

yeah! you can use "div layers" to postion the car anywhere on your site- that way you can over lap in a little on top of the iframe. :) good luck!

how would the div layers work? do I just make another div after I do the div on the background?

ok, never mind, I figured that out, I made another div layer, and then I used absolute positioning to fix it. Thanks for all the help!
