Looks like you have the background set to the table AND the middle cell.

Ok my problem is I Didnt have a constant background. So when we did the side bar I have a gap between my header and footer. What can i do I tried making a BG and making it the BG of the middle But it leaves this like 1 mm gap between the top and middle and then middle and bottom Instead of being flush. So it really looks Bad. Please help Thx

Screenshots or a link to the page you are having issues with would be VERY helpful. I'm a bit confused with your post at the moment.

Thanks anyway dude. But i figured it out I was leaving cell padding and spacing blank instead of putting them to 0. Geuss thats what happens when you dont look at all the screen shots. Just figure you know stuff. Anyway works good now Thanks alot. Just so hard with 56k. Ausome tutorial btw except i found it extremly hard to match up the nav bar Buttons. How did you slice them so perfectly without missing a pixel?

[Cloud54367]

Really sorry to keep bothering you but i have another problem. If you look at my layout

Lil bit of a problem for me as well, should be easy to solve though.

I'm stuck on lesson 7b - First section of STEP E.

I insert the header_nav_button_left.gif into the top left blank cell, all is ok. I then press the right arrow key so that the cursor is on the right hand side of the image, and finally change the width of the cell to '10' in the properties box...nothing happens, the cells stay the same size.

I didn't think this small problem needed a screenshot but just ask me if you need one.

I'm afraid I can't explain this to you without basically going over the entire tutorial I wrote tailored to your layout. If you want me to slice it, PM me and I can do that for $35 and you can see what I did with the layout for the future. I don't mind helping people out, but from your question, I don't think you understand the concept of using tables to form your content, and I'd basically have to teach you from the ground up.

Sorry I can't help you more than that...

Does the cell's width change when you set the others next to it? DW is funny sometimes and doesn't size the cell properly until you do the others.

Nope, none of the cells change width or height, I tried all of them in the table :/

Shall I send you my index ?

Wow, really great slicing guide!!! Well I'm having some trouble at lesson 6a. The other night I almost finished, but got tired and quit. Now when I started over, I tried to go to table>Split cell, but I got this.

Once again I feel like an idiot, I apologize for the pms Faken. Now, I did find a problem in the coding: http://www.slicinggu...ve/index10.html
Notice how at the bottom-left corner there is a little problem, I think you should notice it right away. The image is like, kinda messy.

Post a screenshot, looks ok to me

[Faken]

I see what you mean... good catch! I'll fix it when I get a second... probably just a slice error of 1 pixel on that bottom corner image

FAKEN you are the master!!
great tutorial! thanks to put in all the effort.

Now i have a question. How can i easely replace my main navigation buttons into rollover images? Like on mouse over : a outerglow and on click :change color.
Because they allready are gifs when you save them in photopaint
You cant adjust the content of the font.

Any suggestions?

maybe you can make a new awesome tutorial about that !

thanx in advance

Hi!

I would like to thank Faken for this great tutorial he made, It is very helpful and very professional. I've done all the steps and everything successfully!

Here is my website I made all by myself : www.totalfrag.com/test/

Now that I got my website sliced and coded, what is the next thing I should do? Now I want to fix the text colors, sizes and font, but I am not sure on how to do that. Some people said CSS Stylesheet...If there is a superb tutorial out there just like www.slicingguide.com that I can use, I would be thankful.

Now my other question...how do I create pages? Some people said IFrames, and others said PHP Includes are way better...so I'm totally confused as I want to get this website up and running as soon as possible, and looking sweeeeeeeeet

One last question, how come I got an empty space right under the footer? I looked all over the code and everything, but couldnt find the error

Best Regards,
Scorpion
