Hello Murray,

I know it's easy in DW, but this method would be far quicker, my design will
end up with about 20 small layers each containing a small image.

I know I can export the images from FW, then create, size and position the
Divs (layers) and then insert each image into it's div, but that's ball
aching compared to the export CSS Layers option in FW, if only it worked,
all I should need to do is created this one FW generated HTML page copy the
styled divs out of it in to my DW created HTML page and Bob's your Uncle!

I never create HTML via FW but this one example could save me a lot of time!

I hope that explains it :-)

I think I have sorted it!

You need to turn off the option to 'trim' the images, it don't make sense,
but it appears to work!
