Post subject: website design - dreamweaver
|
|
|
I used dreamweaver to design my website from a preloaded template. I modified it to my needs and have a main template file in dreamweaver(usually ends with a .dwt extension). I have navgation in the left and the main body in the middle. So whenever I update the template file, all links ang pages get automatically updated sitewide.
Now I'am thinking of going a new design wherein i wish to have a 3-column design with my main links on the left nav bar and some useful content in the right nav bar on the right with the main content in the middle. This is mainly to improve the navigation as well to reduce the use of rollover images (which i presently use for navigation). I've already got a few templates to work with, but I'am not completely able to edit them in Dreamweaver since there are a lot of colors that I don't want to use.
So i tried editing them In "Fireworks", which i have very little knowledge about, but after editing when i save the .psd file (which comes loaded with a template) as html and images and when i load them in Dreamweaver the whole template becomes one big image. So i split them up into slices and tried saving them but found major flaws when these were exported into Dream weaver.
Now all iwant is a simple website design wherein there is a navigation menu the left within a rectangular table, a content area in the middle and another table to the right for some other content. Now I wanted these tables to have curved edges and also some colored borders. Since I'am not able to accomplish this in Fireworks, i tried to colorize my table borders; i get a colored table when viewed in Internet explorer but not in firefox....Please help _________________ A part-time effort to a full-time income |

There are some tutorials online that show you how to make the round edge look through photoshop or css. Do you have a copy of your html code to post (less the content of course).
