No, because I thought it was the "book.htm" that was larger than the
"index.htm"... but I will check the images on the home page right now. I
thought the book.htm page was the one that needed to be changed, but maybe
not?

Thank you,
Brenda
 
Okay - I did check the images on the home page, but I think the total is
smaller than the size of the table...

Brenda
 
Could you please recheck my pages and tell me what I need to change? I'm at
a complete loss.

This thread has gone on so long, I don't exactly remember what the
original problem was. Which page is correct?

What I do when something like this happens to me:

o make a backup copy of the page in question, then start deleting things
one at a time until the problem goes away

Crude, but sometimes effective...
 
Dennis,

My problem is that I am using templates with the rebuild of the website, but
the "books.htm" page is not the same size as the index.htm size. I can't
figure out what is causing the problem. Any and all help GREATLY
appreciated.

First you need to say which page is correct and which is bad.

Then all I can do is comment on the markup.
 
On both pages in your editable region you have
<table class="pcMainTable" width="221">
On the home page you have 2 images (each 200 px wide) so that table is wider than the 221 px (more like ~420 px), so it is streched
out (compared to your books page which only has 4 images of 50 px wide
- or make your 200 px wide images only 150 px wide on your home page

Hmmmm ... are you sure?

I would have thought it was the other way around.
http://www.rainbowsandcalicothings.com/new/books.htm looks nice while
http://www.rainbowsandcalicothings.com/new/ looks like it is under
construction.

I'm not sure what you mean by "using a template". If it is a FP feature,
then I have never used it.

***

I did notice something that I thought was strange in the markup for
http://www.rainbowsandcalicothings.com/new/. In the right-hand table I
saw code like:

<TR>
<TD COLSPAN=2>...</TD>
<TD>...</TD>
</TR>

I always thought that this meant that somewhere else in that table I
would find something like:

<TR>
<TD>...</TD>
<TD>...</TD>
<TD>...</TD>
</TR>

But in this table I don't see this anywhere. Maybe someone else knows if
this will cause problems when rendered in a browser.
 
Stefan,

Thank you - I like the way the home page (index.htm) looks, as compared to
the "books.htm" page. Let me think about how to change "books.htm" to make
it like "index.htm".

Thank you again,
Brenda
 
Dennis,

What about the first page (index.htm) looks like it's under construction? I
don't quite understand, but I'm open to ALL suggestions to make this a nice
website.

I'm using FrontPage Dynamic Web Templates, which I "thought" would force
each page to be the same size, but apparently really not. I need to rework
the sizes of the pictures.

Thank you,
Brenda
