Front Page 2000 Frames/Tables with Fireworks Buttons

[Bill]

I am trying to use some navigation buttons created in Fireworks and am
having a few "issues".

My goal is to have a pretty simple website with a set of navigation buttons
(using java generated by Macromedia Fireworks) going down the left hand side
of all pages and the corresponding content showing up on the right but have
had problems implementing using a variety of strategies:
1) Using Frames (which I would prefer not to do for compatability issues)
I can get the site working fine, but even if I hide frame borders, I still
get an unsightly line cutting accross my background. So it works, but all
those hours creating a graphic are wasted. Any way to eliminate that line?
2) Using Shared Borders I can get the table and the buttons to show up
fine, but the java script seems to get lost and when I go to preview i get a
scripting error. Unable to find the location of the code for the shared
border to make sure it gets in there . . .
3) Using tables I cant seem to figure out how to split the screen so that
my navigation buttons dont get adjusted as the text extends below the table.
Is there a way (there must be) to keep the table on the left and place text
to the right?

Thanks for any help. Obviously, I am totally clueless . . .

Ok, so I have figured out how to hard wire positions without using frames
but am not able to get the text to flow properly.

Would still rather use Shared Borders to save time here, so any tips on
preserving all the java scripting when moving buttons over to shared borders
would be appreciated.

This is pretty basic, but I have no clue . . .Thanks

Shared borders only include the content inside of the BODY tags, so copy all your scripts and any BODY onload statements to all your
pages that use them (or use an external .js file on all pages)
