Hi,i'm new to dreamweaver and website design and i was hoping that someone can help me with my problem.
My site that i'm designing at the moment has some images that are on the
edge of the screen, one of them is a pencil, it is half on and off the
screen.
When i convert the page from layers to table it takes the images away from
the edges which is not what i want, is there away to move the table to the
edges or should i just stick to using layers.

thanks

You should look into setting teh page margins. Here's a guide with the IE tags to do so. The Netscape tags are different, and I don't remember what they are.
