mmmbisto Posted January 24, 2003 Report Share Posted January 24, 2003 You can't make them wider, but when I looked at the HTML, and was messing about with it to add more links, I didn't have any problems.I guess as long as you follow the way all of the links are set out: <img src="bullet.gif" width="7" height="7" border="0" align="center"> <a HREF="index.html">Link</A> the & n b s p is putting a space in to bring it in from the side, and include to add a break and continue on the next line.I saw that worked. The boxes are in a table, and the background of the table is a continuing image so you can carry on down as far as you like.You can't make it wider because the top images aren't expandable, they're just that size.Has this helped?

madboy33 Posted January 24, 2003 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2003 mmmbistoi took the bullet gifs out as they looked horriblei am trying to expand the boxes on the left hand side in a downward direction so they do not overlap and they are larger height ways, if you know what i meani know i can not expand wider as i just realised they are part of the imagesits ok for you web designers, but i aint got a clue here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmbisto Posted January 24, 2003 Report Share Posted January 24, 2003 I'm not sure I get what you mean.Do you mean you want the middle part of the table bigger so it doesn't look cramped? Or am I having a blonde moment...? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmmbisto Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 Add text?I can only suggest going here: http://www.lissaexplains.com/html.shtml#font and see exactly what you want to do there.As for the boxes I'd put them in a table if you want them evenly aligned. It's the only way. I was going to suggest DIV layers but I tried it and it didn't work :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmbisto Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 lol, ok, instead of that post, just ignore it.Do want it something like this?I think to save both our sanity I'll send you the HTML so you can copy and paste. I saw how many tables and stuff there were and I just had to clean it up! Hehe. So it's a lot more simpler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
