Newbies buttons/links

I Created a button in PShop and transferred it to the images folder in the Dreamweaver file..I then inserted the button image in a Table in a Layer in the right location on the page ..

Then the button moves from its position when the page is viewed in Explorer?

I have 7 buttons/links on the page , in line and at this rate without some much appreciated help the page might get done by 2010!

help appreciated..

The way you have used z-index and absolute positioning is really not going to help you page. It is extremely confusing reading you code.

If you mean you tab style buttons across the top of the page, well first off they are not even in a table they are in DIVs. Also, I cannot actually see 7 buttons in the html and it doesn't seem to appear anywhere on my screen.

BTW. Your page is way to wide which is a result of absolute positioning and looks terrible on anything smaller than 1280*1024. This may be the web standard by 2010 but it isn't now.

I really think you have made this design very hard for yourself by having an extensive use of z-index. I would really advice you to start again and also take a bt more of a minimalist approach to your design because it is very big and bold. Less is sometimes more.

Sorry mate but even 900px is really quite wide. But that is your decision. Have you managed to get the buts to work yet?

I would really hope you are being sarcastic about z-index. You really have over used it though.

i have no training in Dreamweaver at all, i just opened it and
started clicking and doing things you can look at http://www.koolotube1.com
and see the code I guess
I revamped the size and thats where its right for
what i want etc.

so when i say z-index? i m giving it to you straight
i think i know what index.html is but z-index????

I have the butts working and most things going ok although im
starting to get into movies and swf and maybe streaming and wow
it's bit of a head scratching time I guess.

Well z-index is basically used to set layers up on your page. It could be used to create a layered image almost exactly like in photoshop. It requires absolute positioning on a page and is really not a good idea to use.
