What am I doing wrong.

[Monica A.]

Hi,
I need some help. I am new with dreamwaver.

I created a template. I want to send it as an email. I can see it nice
opening with Dreamweaver, but when I open it with a browser most of my text
desapeared and the layoutcells moved. I created a StyleSheet for the fonts.
All the files are in one subdirectory. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Monica,

You'll need to use absolute links to your images and stylesheets.

Use: <link href="http://www.yourdomain.com/css/styles.css" rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css" />

instead of: <link href="../css/styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
/>

If that doesn't get you very far, please post a link to your page so we can
see what's going on.

HTH,
bT

Fonts are irrelevant on the web. You can only suggest fonts that they may or
may not have on their computer...you can't tell someone to use a specific
font of yours.

As for CSS, if we're talking about email, an external style sheet likely
won't work. Your best off putting your CSS inline.

Other than that, we'd have to see your page to be of any specific help.
