| sure,
| it's no big deal really you just use tables set to a % rather than a fixed
| pixel measurement.
|
| that said, making it really nice requires a lot of learning on how to deal
| with sizing of elements within the table and usually culminates in "nested
| tables"; tables within tables.
|
| you could also go with .css (cascading style sheets) for lay-out but you'd
| probably be better served by learning the table method first.

For

to

space

| page still looks nicely centered.  Can FrontPage accomodate this?  I have
