    Default tearing my hair out...

    This is probably something simple, but, I cannot for the life of me figure this
    out - please look at [url]http://www.kevincrowepottery.com/firing.htm[/url]

    There's no space at the top of the page when veiwed in safari, but there is
    when viewed in dreamweaver and IE.

    Please someone have mercy on me and help. Thanks!

    You can use CSS positioning if you like. Just add some positioning values to
    the div tag that contains the banner image e.g.

    <div id="Layer2" style="position: absolute; left: 126px; top: 0px; width:
    637px; height: 42px; z-index: 2; vertical-align: middle"><img
    src="/images/logo_title3.gif" alt="kevin crowe and tye river pottery"
    width="650" height="135" /></div>

    Good grief. Don't do that.

    Fix the page first....

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

    an XHTML doctype, but -

    <meta name="keywords" content=" " >
    ....
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

    HTML style meta tags.

    <a href="/docs/Good as it gets.pdf"

    Spaces in file/pathnames.

    #container {
    width: 760px;
    \width: 780px;

    What's that slash doing there?

    #content {
    padding: 5px;
    margin-left: 175px;

    ;
    }

    There's an extra semicolon there.

    #sidebar-a {
    float: left;
    width: 150px;
    \width: 160px;

    Another errant slash.

    Then let's take a look at the spacing....

    Ok, ignore my earlier post lol. Found a better way. Go to Modify > Page
    Properties and there you can set the page margins. Set the top margin to 0
    (take note that some browsers don't support the 0 margin but IE should be ok).
    The banner should be slap bang at the top with no spaces.

    Umm, Murray. Since nobody is replying my thread on 'Inserting Tables'. Please
    could you see if you can help me? I'm new to Dreamweaver too, though I have
    been through 10 hours worth of tutorials on a CD lol. Ok, here's my dilemna:

    I want to insert a table in my html document but a window pops up saying it
    won't be visible unless View > Visual Aids > Invisible Elements is checked and
    the element is on in preferences. I've checked and it is already checked! Also
    in Code View it adds the comment

    <!-- MENU-LOCATION=NONE -->

    I can insert the table tag in Code View and then it will show but doing that
    all the time is annoying. I won't be using dreamweaver if I just wanted to
    write pure code. Will appreciate if someone can tell me what's wrong! Thanks.

    Fix the page first. Then worry about the spacing.

    K, Murray - I think I fixed all the things you spoke of earlier.

    It seems whenever I insert a table, it makes a large gap above it in IE, any
    ideas on how to rectify this?

    The suggestion of the "page modify" and setting the top margin to 0 was not
    succesful.

    thanks very much for your time in replying.

    Without seeing your code, no. But it's not my experience that such things
    happen.
