Hi, I have this page that will not behave. There should be a margin (left) of
4 px from my shared border and the text will not stay in full view but
instead I have to scroll to completely read. All tables are set at 100% and
yet the table with the pictures will not stay at 100% but slightly over. I
have redone this page to try to get it to behave and it won't . Can someone
tell me why?

Hi Catt,

You have at least two things (there might be more) contributing to this.

The table with the 4 images in it has each of the 4 cells set to about 215
pixels in width..that will cause scrolling. Try removing any width settings
on those.

Also the 4 pictures within that table total a little more than 800 pixels in
width..so you will either need to reduce their widths..or put them in
different rows.
 
Thanks Joe, I kind of had a feeling it was the set of 4 pix. The text over
one pict was not responding correctly.
I'll reduce as you say. Thanks for contributing....I learn something new
everyday here.
 
You should also optimize your images, they are slowing down your page download time.
 
You really need to rescale those images in a graphics app before adding
them to your pages. Browsers have to read the full size image first, and
then rescale them. That makes the page take a long time to download.
 
Linda, thanks for the reply. Do you mean that if I bring a pict in thats,
say, 150 x 150 pix and shrink it in FP by grabbing a corner and rescaling it,
that the browser reads it at 150 x 150 and then has to process the
shrinking???

Yes, unless you click on Re-Sample button, etc., however the quality of your image will be adjusted,
so it is best to use a image application to re-size your image, so that you can maintain the
quality.

Thanks, very enlightening/ had no idea, therefore I will scale my pics before
I import them.
