Completely Baffled, big white space on top of my page
I am working on a site for one of my friends, and I keep running into a problem. i am using Dreamweaver MX, but when i preview it through IE, NS, and Opera, it looks fine on the top. When i upload it to my server, then view it LIVE online, it has this big piece of image missing, and the links are correct for it

Could you take a look please and let me know whats happening.
Basically, I have the main image on the top left, then i have a cell that is set to expand with the window, and I had a background image repeating along the x-axis so it will fill in where necessary.

Ok you have some major problems in your code. You are mixing pixel measurements (eg. "147, 207") with percentage measurements. This will not work. I am not sure why it would preview correctly because it really shouldnt have. You need to pick to one measurement and then make sure that you use that the whole way through your code. Good luck.

Is that better?
Thanks for the pointers. I just sometimes want to keep the text in the middle from wanting to scrunch up too much, but still allow the top to expand completely
p.s. Is the design "not bad" for not spending much time on it since I am doing it for free for my friend.
Its just a basic webpage to incorporate information regarding Golf carts (different kinds)for the company. That is their logo in the corner. I spent about an hour designing it. You will also notice their is a popup menu on the CARTS link.
For some reason in Opera, on the left there is a thin white space between the two images, and I can't figure that one out either

Perfect! No white space in IE6!
Yeah your design is nice! I was just looking from a coding point of view and saw a few problems. Good job and good luck with it.
