Re: what type of code

Create a CSS layout using percentages instead of pixels for widths. EXAMPLE: (www.thehtmldude.com/rocketvideo)

Your example site is done using flash. That's a little more complicated.

I don't think there is a program that will do this for you if your using an image as your background. Not sure how they did it on DRE.

Re: what type of code

Front page? Ohh is that the program that Microsoft released in 2003 and had a banner that said this?
Code: Select all
</p>
We've Cleaned up our code
</p>
LMAO they couldn't even get the coding right in their flash banners much less the actual program itself.

Ok, don't use Frontpage or Dreamweaver design view because Frontpage especially uses "Extensions" which means, "Hey, we can't program it right, so we make something that might work on 10% of hosting servers (who support it) and won't work on most browsers other than Internet Explorer."

Ok, I love you Microsoft, but I dislike Frontpage... Probably the reason your new Web Techs threw it out and made a completely new program.
