Need help with divider plase

[Mark G.]

Trying to split of my page. For now am using 3 image files to do so. You can
see them by going here:

While I like this look for the most part, these images make it tough to
place buttons or menus anywhere near. I do not want to use frames unless I
can make them invisible. So my question is, is there a better way I can get
this kind of look without the hassle that these image files are causing me?
Any insight is greatly appreciated, so let's hear from you. Thanks much.

Any way to change color of table border?

 

[Stefan B Rusynko]

In table properties - borders
But unless you use CSS, table borders surround all cells

Are there any other ideas?

Some options.

1. If your site supports FPSE, use shared borders.

2. If that is not an option, you can create a standard template that has
all the navigation stuff and a place holder for the content. The
template usually is table based and one cell is designated for the
content. You then use this template to create all pages.

3. Another option is to create menus in Javacript include file (e.g.
menus.js).

Option 1 is the best because it is done at the server by FP and if you
decide to change the shared borders all pages that use are automcally
updated.

Option 2 is good as well but you will need to change each page if you
decide to change the navigation scheme.

Option 3 works well but you will loose the menus if the user disables
javacript at the browser.
