Hello,
Please watch these 20 second clips so you can see my problem.
First video (quite fuzzy, sorry):
http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=qsp10x&s=5
I want it so it goes down 1 line instead of 2 lines at a
time..
Second video:
http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=8wgt93&s=5
I want to put something in that massive area next to the
buttons table area, but it keeps going underneath..

Answer 1

Hello,
I don't think I've seen screenshot video showing a question
before. Clever.
1. Use CSS to set the margins for the <p> tags.
p {margin: 0px;}
or
p {margin: 0.2em 0em}
Adjust as needed.
2. That's how HTML works. Elements follow the normal flow and
block level
elements, like a table, usually begin on a new "line."
You could make the table with your navigation in it a 2
column table.
Insert the navigation in the first column.
Insert a new table in the second column.
Then, the new table will sit to the right of the navigation.
You could also use divs and CSS to float them next to each
other.
Your best bet is to set DW aside for a little while and learn
HTML and CSS.
DW will be far easier to use if you understand how HTML
works.
Then you'll understand why things happen like they do, what
is possible and
how to do it.
If you don't, DW will be a very frustrating adventure with a
hard learning
curve.
A good place to start:
