I don't know what is happening but data is overlapping
cells, Word Art is not showing up anymore no matter how I do the compatibility settings. Any suggestions please? http://easternshoreartcenter.com/childclass1.htm I think I will have to forget Word Art. Thanks, Susan |

Word Art is a feature Microsoft added to IE back in the days when proprietary features were supposed to attract Web surfers and designers away from Netscape (which was playing the same game.)

1) you have some cobbled html to fix
As in <td height="100%"" which should be <td height="100%" 2) remove you styles from you content in the tables Stuff like <p class="MsoBodyText" style="text-indent: -18.0pt; margin-left: 18.0pt"> move your text out of the tables cells IMHO drop all the Word/Shape art as a simple table (and .gif for you text) will do what you are trying to do -- _____________________________________________ SBR @ ENJOY (-: [ Microsoft MVP - FrontPage ] "Warning - Using the F1 Key will not break anything!"

Don't know how that happened. I copied text from Publisher
which probably contributed to my dilemma. Is it better to copy text into notepad first to get rid of formatting and then into FrontPage or is there another trick? Also about Word Art - are you saying to use different graphic package to create gif or is the way to use Word Art generated gif and put it in table and refer to directly? Thank you so much for your help. The FrontPage Newsgroup is my favorite MS Newsgroup. MS-MVP's, Authors, and others are wonderful. Happy Holidays!

Yes - Use notepad to strip "stuff" from other file formats
Use a graphics editor, or a screen capture tool (to garb the wordart) to create your colored text -- _____________________________________________ SBR @ ENJOY (-: [ Microsoft MVP - FrontPage ] "Warning - Using the F1 Key will not break anything!"

> Thank you for the Ten Traps. But what am I doing to mess > up my tables? Guess I need to get into the html to find > out. Sorry. The advice I intended to give was: This problem occurs frequently when you put Word Art in tables. So stop putting Word Art in tables. In fact, stop using WordArt completely. Apparently I expressed this poorly.

Thank you, I was confused because I don't use Word Art in
tables but for headings in pages. I have learned my lesson though. Have a few pages to change. Happy Holidays!
