Logo Image

[Scoody]

Hi all,

I have just started creating a web site for a friend using DW. I am very new to the whole web design thing!

The logo image I want to use for the front page seems to stretch down until I hit F5 a couple of time, then it goes to the size it should be.

I have set the width to 100% so all rez’s can view it. What should the length be set to so it views the image correctly? It is set to 100% at the moment which I guess is causing the problem.

The site is www.davidgrantartwork.co.uk


Thanks for any help you can give.

in your source code it looks like you have competing sizes.

Here you have it set to 100%:
<p class="mainframe"><img src="Images/JPG/design1.jpg" alt="" name="header" width="100%" id="header" /></p>

But the next two lines down in your code, you have absolute sizes and all of these are trying to take up the same space.
<img src="Images/JPG/design1.jpg" width="3386" height="1365" class="mainframe" />
<p class="DG"><img src="/Images/JPG/design1.jpg" alt="logo" width="3386" height="1365" class="DG" /></p>



I didn't have to hit f5 or anything but did have to scroll down and back up once to see it properly. If your tables are defined with set sizing this could cause a weird conflict as HTML loads a page as it's read. Whatever comes first is what you see first then sorts itself out a bit after it reads the whole cascading style sheet.

You want your image to be rather close to the size you need it to be to keep it from flipping out. I'm thinking since you used Dreamweaver that it put the actual size of the images in there as you inserted them.
