Table -on- an image.

[IceColdFire]

Hey there.

I've been designing a website here and there while work is a bit slow. I never intended on coding it, but apparently HTML cures boredom as well.

Anyways, my skills in coding are hardly something to brag about. I'm trying to get a text box with a scroll bar in the middle of the image on the main index, for updates and such.

After way too much searching, i can't find any other way to do it aside from tables. More searching, and i cannot figure out how to get that table in the middle of the image let alone on it period.

Any help or links would be much appreciated. :)

try an IFrame
You create a page that will be shown and will scroll and can have your background.
Quote below is what you insert into your page.
Size it.
Create a second page with your updates.

you could also use div layers, which is the preferred way if you want to cure a little more boredom. Simply stack the layers of content over one another. There are plenty of tutorials out there on how to use layers they are the way of the future man.
