Using FrontPage 2002..how do I move pictures to any point I want on the page?
I can't seem to place them at any specific locations on the page.
 
Design your page using tables for page layout

Do your layout with tables. You can't just drag the image to whereever you
like, because HTML doesn't really work that way - if you were coding by hand
(in Notepad), you wouldn't have that flexibility.
 
FrontPage can't really do that. HTML is what is known as a markup language,
that means it is used to describe how content will appear. It is not a
layout language, which would describe where content would appear (like a
graphics application would do). Web sites are built using complex table
structure. Basically, envision the page cut up into the areas you want in
order to get the placement you need.

Put tables where you want the pictures to go, and put the pictures in the
tables. That's the standard way.

That's the standard way.

Actually, there IS no "standard way." In fact, using tables is falling out
of fashion in favor of CSS.

Click to expand...

The easiest way is to position an image absolute, this creates a layer
which you can name anything you want (also benificial if there are
multiple layers on top of each other)
Format-position-none (wrapping style)-absolute (positioning style)
afterwhich you can click on the handle and place it anywhere, This
sounds more complicated than it really is
