Re: Text/Images won't show up in tables

Wanda,

Glad to hear it's working - that's good news. With tables, it's a good idea
to set border="1" when you first get started, then turn the border off when
you're done. With nesting, try using bordercolor="red" and so forth to keep
track of which table is which. By the way, you are not getting the full
advantage of the scaling feature of your tables by setting the widths to a
specific value.  Sometimes, you really do want a table to be a specific
number of pixels wide, but sometimes it's more user friendly to use
percentages, such as width="100%" You might want to give it a try...

CSSP is the "position" feature associated with cascading style sheets. It
really opens up the possibilities for layout. You can position just about
anything to the pixel. And you can do link "rollovers" with javascript. My
web design tips might help you get a basic idea. And style sheets are very
search engine friendly. Click the link under my signature line to access the

It is my understanding that most search engines no longer use meta tags to
index your site. The title tag, and the textual content of a page is much
more important now. Years ago, the telephone operator connected you to your
party, because you could not do it yourself. Today, you can dial direct. It'
s the same on the Internet: people can enter a web address directly into
their browser. So it's still a good idea to get your web address in their
hands: business cards, printed directories associated with your product or
service, advertisements on radio, television, newspaper and magazines, links
from web sites associated with your product or service but not necessarily
in competition with yours...  :))

Is your home on the web an elegant, user-friendly place to visit?
Do the colors, images, layout & style please my eyes?
Can visitors interact and navigate intuitively?
Do the features mesh to create balance & harmony?
Does it focus on function & content or smoke & mirrors?
Does it show that I am serious about my home on the web?
Will it attract people who share my values and interests?
