I added some drawing object (rectangular shape) to my page and I noticed
whenever a window is not fully opened, they don't shrink along with the rest
of the things on the page. They run out of the table and even lay on some of
the product image on the page. What can I do make the page stay the same when
a window is not opened fully? Here is the link, to the page:
http://uhaweb.hartford.edu/aso/dixah/bracelets.htm (I’m still working on the
whole site so please ignore the other pages.)
Thanks.
 
Switch to HTML/Code View and for the style tag of the object change
position:absolute to position:relative
 
FYI: The drawing toolbar creates VML Graphic the will only be seen by visitor to your site using IE
under Windows.

I don't understand. I just tried to open one of the pages with Firefox and
Mozilla, and the drawing objects showed.
 
You should be seeing is a low level GIF image in place of the VML Graphic.

OK I undstand now. I wanted to creat this same effect with a table (with the
silver 3D backgound and all) but didn't know how. Is there a way to creat
this same design with a table? Thanks.
 
Use an image editor to create the graphic. This will have the added
advantage of not using absolute positioning, so there will not be any issue
with the graphic overlaying text in different sized browser windows.
