hey all,

was hoping I could get some help with a table Im trying to lay out. A table that should be fairly simple but I am finding it difficult to get it to look right. Could someone help me code it into html? the image is

theres a very easy way to do this and not a lot of people know about it.

its called a fieldset in a form. heres the html

<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>
&lt;table width="450" border="0"&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;fieldset&gt;&lt;legend class="style1"&gt;Our Friends&lt;/legend&gt;
&lt;/fieldset&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;fieldset&gt;&lt;legend class="style1"&gt;Premium Sites&lt;/legend&gt;
&lt;/fieldset&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
</font id=code></pre id=code>

and heres what it looks like.

only thing is you cant have the text as a graphic, but you can easily make it look better with a little css and shadow etc..

<img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_8ball.gif border=0 align=middle> DW has a insert button for <i>&lt;fieldset&gt;</i> in the FORMS objects.

You'll want to use the <i>&lt;legend&gt;</i> tag for the fieldset text that shows above form elements.

html above was created in DW using the forms fieldaet button, when u name it thats the value of the LEGEND tag, as chris states.

forgot to mention that <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
