Hi, I need some help with my table layout. This is what it looks like: http://articsun.com/hmrpg/New/New.htm

This is what I want it to look like: http://articsun.com/hmrpg/New/Template.jpg

Also note, I made that in psp so its not real. I made to to make it easier for you to see what Im talking about.

I don't know who to get it to look like that. I want it centered in the page also. I will also change the background color later.

Please help me and explain what I am doing wrong!!

It doesn't look as if you've coded it yet, so how could you have done something wrong? ;)


You could use frames (http://www.lissaexplains.com/frames.shtml) or tables (http://www.lissaexplains.com/tables.shtml) or DIVs (http://www.lissaexplains.com/html7.shtml) with that layout... if you used tables, the area with a scrollbar would either be an iframe (http://www.lissaexplains.com/frames.shtml#inline)or scrolling div (http://www.lissaexplains.com/html7.shtml#divlayerscroll).

The size of your layout is kind of limited by that header image you made (the part with "harvest moon rpg").

Hmm... funny links.

Im having torble with the coding. I can't seem to get the table how I want it.

Would it be possible for to to move the left panel to the left side of the screen and the banner to the top and then have the main area filling the rest of the page?

Then that would be a frame right?

Im not sure what Im going to do, I'll have to get back to you.

you forgot to close the table:

<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
</head>
<body>

<center>
<table border="1" bordercolor="#000000">
<tr>
<td background="http://articsun.com/hmrpg/New/HMBanner.jpg" width="460" height="91"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td background="http://articsun.com/hmrpg/New/LPanel.jpg" width="110" height="434"></td>
<td background="http://articsun.com/hmrpg/New/Background.jpg">last cell</td>
</tr></table>

</body>
</html>

the bold part is what you forgot. now in the last cell (where i have put the red words in) you can add an iframe so that the pages open into that 'cell'

Love,
