Page spacing and layout
Hi I think this is a pretty simple one. I can't remember how to lay my page out with a bit of 'dad space' either end to compensate for wider screens. basically if i set my page up in a table how would i make it in the middle of the page?
thanks!

RE: Page spacing and layout
Hi Duncan,
Using table layout, set the table alignment to centre. Either select the table and change alignment on properties toolbar, or in code view add parameter align="center" to the TABLE tag.
You can either set the table width to be a percentage (eg. 80% will leave 10% space either side) or to be a pixel value (eg. 700px on a 1024 resolution screen will leave about 150 pixels on each side).
Hope this helps. Let me know if you get stuck.
Regards, Rich

RE: Page spacing and layout
Actually, one more thing now, sorry.
if I'm setting up a framed page with a top and nested right frame how do i make the link (selected from a table in the left frame) appear in the centre of the main frame?
I can make it appear but it is on the left of the frame, is there a way i can choose it's position?
sory to keep on bothering you!
thanks for your help :)
Framed pages
Hi Duncan,
This message was marked as 'resolved' so i wasn't aware you had posted another question (just so you know. you can adjust the 'resolved' status of your questions).
To choose which frame a link should appear in, you just change the target="" parameter in the A tag.
Example, assume your main content frame is named 'mainccontent'. To have a link open in the maincontent frame, the code should be like this: <a href="products.html" target="maincontent">
Or, when you are typing in a link on your properties toolbar, there should be a Target drop-down box with all the standard targets PLUS all your frame names.
The standard targets are:
_blank (new browser window or tab)
_top (removes all framesets and opens the link in the same browser window)
_parent (opens the link in the parent frameset, if you are using nested frames)
_self (default, opens the link in which ever frame the link exists in)
Hope this helps.
Regards, Rich
