    Putting a web page together
    >:(I received this freelance project to develop a website using Dreamweaver. I need to convert the layers to tables but when I do, a large .jpg image shifts out of place. I can't use it as a background image because that will tile it. I've had to insert other small layers on top of it and I think the program doesn't allow for overlapping layers, but I see many websites that look like they had to overlap layers. Do I need to slice up the large image and import each slice into it's own layer? Do I use Imageready for this since I don't have Fireworks? If so, how do I begin. I can't seem to find step-by-step web building materials that are any good and I'm growing real fustrated and may loose this job... please help!

    Sounds like you're a little out of your depth on this project? For starters, overlapping layers are a minefield for many browsers - the results could be very unpredictable. Tables are much more predictable, if harder to do well. The main thing with predictability and tables is to indent your code meticulously so you know which nested table and column/row you are working on right now. Get that wrong, and things start to jump around. You can use an image as a background without tiling, at least in the later browser versions. Why don't you post the page somewhere so I can take a look at it and give you some more advice.
