web layout wrong size
That is because there is no such thing as a page in HTML as you think of it.
Pages being created for a web display need to be framed or they simply fill the screen width available. If everyone in the world used exactly the same monitor using the same resolution, life for web designers would be easy peasy! Word is a poor tool for web design. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "treegirl" wrote in message ... I put together a web design on 8 1/2 X 14 in "print layout" view.

A simple solution is to insert a table set to an exact width (using table
properties) and insert the pictures into the table cells. You need to experiment to see what cells sizes you need to match your pictures and then create a 'standard' table with fixed table width/Row, Column widths and save it as an AutoText entry for fast reuse.

Thanks! Still having trouble with it jumping all over - I'll keep at it for a
while, then go to a real web design program "Terry Farrell" wrote: A simple solution is to insert a table set to an exact width (using table properties) and insert the pictures into the table cells.
