Okay, update on my site.

I have found a nice layout on dreamweaver (2 column elastic with header and footer.

I have designed my website in Photoshop and have sliced and diced it all up into the right files.


How do I add them into the dreamweaver layout now? Sorry for such a silly question. :o


P.s How do I create an expandable text field. Whilst the text on the pages will nearly always conform to the size, I would like to be able to add more text without the page going to ****. How would I add a text box that would have a scrolly thing on the side.


thanks
 
Indeed, I am trying to learn.


For now however, I have no idea.


Fancy sharing some wisdom?



I can change the very backgrounds image, but not that of my footer, header, main body etc.

I dont want interactivity just to set the images as the background.

I would definitely learn HTML and CSS - it saves so much time, and you can get things to render properly.

However, the answer to your problem...

In Dreamweaver, open the CSS Panel, if you don't have it go Window > CSS Styles.

Expand the list out, until you come across the property for your footer - ".twoColElsLtHdr #footer"

In the CSS Panel, 'Add Property', and add 'background-image' - specify the location, and you should be good to go.

You should be able to adapt this for your header, and main body.

Hope this helps.
