Hi, I've made a site for bfv in fireworks. I thought afterwards I could plug things in in dw, but I'm a bit of a newb in dw. I'm having a god aweful time trying to insert paypal into my work.

Example, look at the paypal link here (http://www.sgbfv.com) ,try changing the window sizes and you'll see the paypal button moving. I imported the paypal button on a different layer to prevent the page from "tearing" but it moves asI change the window size. can I anchor it to the main part of the page?

Here's the code I inserted for paypal...

<div id="Layer1" style="position:absolute; z-index:1; left: 36px; top: 590px; width: 93px;">
<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<div align="center"> <font size="2" face="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="bmayo@dynamic-alliance.com">
<input name="submit" type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-but04.gif" alt="All proceeds go to
bandwidth costs and
server maintenance." align="middle" border="0">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Speedguide.net game server">
<input type="hidden" name="no_note" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="USD">
<input type="hidden" name="tax" value="0">
</font></div>
</form>
</div>

Does it need a table?Please help me as I am slowly going insane lol.

As far as I know, you either need to use a table (which isolates the content from changes outside the table) or flatten the layers so that your logo is 'locked' to the content currently beneath it

I would use a table.

This is what I have so far, but am having problems and getting frustrated.

If you look at the source code, I have a style setting the margin of the body at 20% from top. IE doesn't add my top margin, Netscape does. Ie adds the top margin for the paypal layer though.

So if I add the margin for paypal to look right in Netscape it ****s it up when you look at it in IE.
