Hi all,

I'm in need of help, unfortunately I'm running out of time as well as I need to have this presented by Monday.

Here's the problem: http://mannylorras.com/test.htm
here's what needs to be the solution: http://mannylorras.com/original.htm

I need for it to not disconfigure the site when I have content in the text areas as it does in test.htm, notable disconfigurations:
- images on left side go down
- middle portion of site gets narrow

also I need the bottom portion to be at the very bottom.

I have no knowledge of coding, I simply know how to design images and layouts. I create a website for me to use to show my marketing decks/plans as part of my business portfolio. I used fireworks to design the site, and the slicing feature to create the coding, it's all automated.

Anyone know how to help me?

It was recommended for me to use CSS/Divs for this layout, but unfortunately I have no knowledge in this. I would greatly appreciate anyone's help with this.

Thanks so much.

Why don't you just use the layout that works? Why recreate it?

The images to the left that drop down, that's because you haven't used valign="top" in the right TD. Fireworks sure has used a lot of them.

Hi Pandy,

Thanks so much! I spent all day today asking everyone for help and this worked with getting the images to stay up and not drop down.

Can you please tell me how I can make it so the bottom portion of the site, stays to the bottom, similar to how the the top stays to the top, ie: topmargin="0".

Thanks again!

If you turn on table borders, then you can see what's going on better. But to me, it looks like your layout tables are much too complex.
