Hey guys I am brand spankin new to dreamweaver so I am probably just making some noob mistake. I am just fooling around right now trying to make a template, and already I am running into trouble. I actually have 2 problems. Here is what I have done and the problem I have run into.
Problem 1: Flash will not load in Internet Explorer
In Dreamweaver I wanted to add a little flash movie I created so I just simply went to Insert>Media>Flash> and selected my flash movie. Dreamweaver imported it all nice and neat, and so I went to test it. I load it up in Firefox and it looks fine and dandy. Then I went to Internet Explorer and uh-oh my flash movie will not play. It is not the problem where you have to click to activate the movie. It is just a big white box.
Problem 2:
I cannot get the “text” division to load in the green box only. For some reason it is displaying across the whole “container” division. Can you help me stick in the green box in the bottom right of the layout?
Thanks for the help guys. Below is the link to the site and the code…
