Hi all,
I'm having huge problems trying to position the tabs on my website see my profile. I'm using FrontPage to edit the html.
I want the tabs at the top of the site to adjust in size if someone changes the size of their broswer. So I want the text in the middle of the three cells to be a percentage of the whole screen but the rounded corners to be a fixed width of 10 pixels.
It's difficult to explain the problem but easily seen by checking the website above.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
The part with the main problem is in the code below.
Thanks,
Travis

I don't know the answer to that question, but I do note that you could much simplify the HTML code if you deleted all of the <font> tags and put three lines of CSS code in an external file instead.

"I'm using FrontPage to edit the html."
If you're trying to create a complex layout using a tool like that you're probably not going to have much luck. It can be done, but only if you know HTML already.
For things that are not standard layout, it generally works much better to just handcode it in, gives you better control. You can get decent control using something like dreamweaver [frontpage is the worst though, to make it useable takes a fair amount of knowledge] but, again, you have to already know how tables etc work in html.
Combining liquid and static elements in tables isn't impossible but it is more difficult than making it all liquid or all static.
