Make page elements stay together

5

5tulips

This is the first time I have done a web using a right shared border instead
of a left shared border. I am laying out my index page like this:

The top shared border is a banner showing the web title (no navigation bar)
773 px wide
Beneath it, the text is in a table 550 px width and the Right Shared Border
is 197 px width

I have a bottom shared border that shows the copyright statement.

The problem is this: When I widen the screen, the right shared border and
the bottom shared border spread out as far as I widen the page, but the top
shared border and the text body table stay to the left where they are
supposed to be. How can I make them stay together as a group?

The borders do extend all the way, it's your content that probably doesn't.
Put a wider image in the top border and you'll see.

Actually, I don't want the top border any wider than it is. I want it viewed
at 800 width, but I want control of the right shared border and the bottom
shared border. Is there a control available for that? I have an aversion to
stretching text from one side of a large screen to another.

But supposing I settle for that (take my text out of the rigid table). My
top shared border contains (no navigation bar) a custom designed page banner
that includes color and the title (.jpg) 773px x 127px. Is there such a
thing as inserting a two-color background that will stretch when the right
shared border is stretched (then I would settle for plain text (TNR) title
instead of the JPG text banner.

A right shared border will always appear to the right in a browser window, you can not change that.

Uses tables and the FP Include Page component or FP2003 Dynamic Templates and FP Include Page
component to design your page layout.

I'll try a couple of 'includes' tutorials to see what they do.

A little progress. have found my graphics program saves htm and xhtml files.
and also permits one to create the css part. Now just have to find out what
to do with them.
Thanks, so far. Not sure what we would do without you people who help us
learn n fix.
