Hi all,

I have created a website in Dreamweaver MX and used the draw layout table in the layout tab to create the site.

So i basically have tables to format the layout etc...

All is well except one or two things:-

I want to ghost an image into the background which covers two columns. So the image will go behind the text.

Any ideas on how to do this?

Thnk you

You do not specify how many columns your site has!

Assuming the site is made up of two columns only;
Where the <table> tag is (after the body tag) include the url of the picture as "background" eg:
<table width="700" border="1" background="../Resources/image_source/pictures/2snow_on_kyrenia_mountains.jpg">
and make sure the overall size of image (with canvas) is equal to table's dimensions. (otherwise image repeats itself to fill the table)

If you want two columns out of many, have rows within those columns, and they are not merged -- you've got problems! Using CSS would be a good alternative if you know how...
