Can anyone help me with some HTML stuff?

On my website, when it loads on a window that is smaller than the site is built at, everything moves and looks like a mess - I want to know how to make it stay together so insead of resizing, it will make a horizontal scroll bar come up on the browser, or something like that. This mainly happens when a browser window is not at full size, and it is a bit annoying. If it matters, I built my site with Mozilla.

You have to set up your site using fixed width tables.

Everything is going to have to be in a table, and you just set the table width to the pixels you want.

If you're using a WYSIWYG editor, I'm not sure how it will handle that... I'd recommend you look at the source and figure out what's going on. http://www.htmlgoodies.com has some good information.

Thanks, I can probably figure out how to make a borderless table to go around each page.

Not sure if it will help but....

I use Front Page to make my web pages. (I'm not a pro nor do I give a crap about ugly code and all that crap. My websites look just fine). In FP I create a table and under the tables properties I tell it to make the width of the table 100% of the page. It gives two options... pixels and percent of page. I find that using the percent of page option works for me.

www.blackrune.com (under construction but the header should still be a table)

If you resize my pages you'll notice that with few exceptions the page "compresses" itself so it all fits... no horizontal scrollbars needed. I hate horizontal scrollbars.

I tried making a table around the entire page (not around individual things) because it seems like that way it should have worked, but it didn't... Do I have to frame individual things?:dead:

I generally make the table or tables and put most everything inside of that.
