Adding layout cells to a webpage

C

CruisePlanner

I am new to FrontPage. When I draw a layout cell on a webpage I am working
on, FrontPage is actually adding a grid of nine blocks (it looks like a tic
tac toe board). The grid is the color of the border I have put on the
perimeter of the format table. Is there a setting I have missed? The
Microsoft Office Online training makes it look so easy, but something is not
quite right. Thanks for your help!

Yes, when I publish the page, it shows up. It isn't the dotted lines that
distinguish the format cell from the spacer cells.

I am not trying to place two tables side by side. I am trying to add one
layout cell to a layout table. For some reason, FP is making a grid of nine
cells...I will try a different route..it seems that the format tables just
don't work. Thanks for your help!

Don't use the table drawing feature. Create a table and build it that way.
