Hi, I’m new to the forum so go easy on me if this has been asked a hundred times over.

I’ve made some headway into creating a webpage via imageready, but I can’t seem to make a real textbox. The text tool allows me to write in the text, but when I export it as HTML, it is saved as an image file. Is there anything I can do about this?

I’ve done some limited work with tables (in frontpage etc.), is there anyway in image ready to create a table or something? I became familiar with the slices and how they work, but I don’t know how I’d manipulate them as boxes in a table. Especially if I’m trying to create a free-sized box (or slice) for text (so it can expand to fit people using different resolutions).

Any thoughts? I was considering just making the gif files for all the parts of the webpage, then inserting them as objects in frontpage and actually doing the webpage there… but then I’d have to learn frontpage 🙁

No – that’s what IR is designed to do. If you are going to be creating web pages gat your self a dedicated HTML editor. Frontpage is NOT advised – it can create code that needs frontpage extensions support on the web server and also produces some very dubious code.

GoLive or Dreamweaver are MUCH better editors.

Of course with a bit of HTML knowledge you COULD create any HTML page just with Notepad and an image editor…
