Hi Everyone,

I'm really new to HTML so please bear with me. By the way i'm from England.

I've just designed my own website using software programme called Web Easy Professional 5, made by V-Com. Now everythings gone ok, but now i've got to point where i'm about to start inserting my "Buy It Now" buttons. I'm going to be using Pay-Pal for all my transactions. My problem now is that once i have entered all the details for my product and Pay-Pal has created the HTML text for me, when i enter this code into Web Easy it acepts it ok and when i upload it to my host the button appears and works but is always in the top left hand corner of the page. I cannot workout how to position the button where i want it on the page next to the product it represents.

I did find some sort of code on Google " <div style ="position:absolute; left:200;top:200;">"

But when i use this the top left of the entire page ends up where the two figures meet, yet if i use this code on its own in a new browser and use Note Pad to enter the code the button ends up where i want it to be. Now i believe Web Easy uses both HTML and Javascript, because when i open the script editor it tells me i need to have an understanding of both HTML and Javascript. Can someone please help me, sorry for the l;ong winded question but the more information you have the better right.

Regards,

try adding px to your code.... ie, <div style ="position:absolute; left:200px;top:200px;">

Unfortunately that doesn't work either, it also moves the whole page over to where the two figures meet.

Hi,

If you chck out my website you'll see what i mean "www.pc-tronics.co.uk" then go to the first page of the Canon compatible inkjet cartrdiges and you'll see what i mean by moving the whole page over.
