Hey Coders,

I am pretty new to Dreamweaver but have some decent understanding of the code and if i ever get stuck i figure it out on my own, but today is not the case.

My problem is: When i enter the code it does not display properly in my workspace, the slice drops all the way down to the bottom, when it should have been in the middle. But when i render it with browser, it displays correctly!!!???

You can see my site progress here at:

topvizstudio.com/webproblem/index.html

or you can download HTML and Image slices here:
topvizstudio.com/webproblem/webproblem.zip

Please help, it's just killing me, i just wasted 2 hours trying to figure it out!

Thank you!

-Serge

Why waste time figuring it out? If it displays correctly in the browser that is all that matters. Your site's users aren't going to be viewing the thing in Dreamweaver.

As long as you're figuring out the code, stick to the code and learn as much about it as you can. Dreamweaver does a competent job as a code assistant, though I don't use it myself personally any more. Preview the site where it is going to end up: in the browser.

Thanks for the response, but the more i continue to built, it just piles up underneath the site, and i have no idea why...

Maybe there is something wrong my CSS structure? it is my first time building web site in CSS, but i tried to keep the code pretty clean, so if anyone take a look it, maybe you could figure it out right on?

I would seriously suggest that you learn to start writing code properly instead of relying on the junk code that DW spews out.

There is absolutely no need for all those floats and the inline code. Learn how the document flow works rather than trying to fight it.

Dreamweaver is absolute crap at interpreting CSS. Once it starts messing up a design just use the browser instead of design view.
