In your page at
http://members.shaw.ca/womensconference/contents.html
Your background images are 129x29px from
http://members.shaw.ca/womensconference/images/button54.jpg
Edit your image to add 1 px of white space at the bottom & right
(so they become 130x30px - the extra white space prevents a repeat in NN)
Then try pasting this code in your content page to replace all you have now
(note: your FP html should be set to not wrap code - the <td> and </td> must be on one line):

Note: the PDFs are targeted to a new window to prevent breaking your frames
Also Remove the bad tags at the end of your page after </html>
Delete </title><base target="main"> if you don't us the above code
PS
Your target in the second frame of your real home page is wrong
<frame name="main" src="home.html" target="home" scrolling="auto">
Points to a frame named "home" which does not exist
- should probably be "_self"

| It's the nav bar down the left that I was working on. I kinda sorta got it
| to work, but it's still not a perfect fit.
|
| The pixel size of the table width and image width don't gel - not in my
| mind.
|
| I was indeed using the small image as a background for each cell (to create
| my own look-alike buttons for the nav bar - in a single-column table).
| Until I learn another way to do this, this is what I'm doing.
|
| I can't find where FrontPage will let me use my own buttons, so I decided to
| work-around it by added my own drawings as the background - to look like
| buttons (probably not the best way, but I can't say that I'm crazy about all
| the buttons that FrontPage comes with - can't make them wide enough for some
| purposes). They look ok, but they also take up a lot of memory and add way
| toooooo many files to the directory - rather hideous.
|
| Thanks for your thoughts. Diana

. The tiling problem would disappear using this
