layers

I posted a site where they wanted to use the printed flyers as pages
woodlandfarmsllc.com, I added links and banners w/front page 2003, now they
want me to place text over the price on the lot map page. I put on a layer
with text and when previewing it stays in place. When I publish it the layer
is higher about an inch. What other way can I get text w/a background the
same as the flyer background without the trouble of layers?

Re: layers

Since your entire website consists of one giant image per page, search
engines will find nothing so why bother (?).

You could just edit the image with an image editor, better yet would be to
edit the image and make the LOT NUMBERS readable then you could create a
normal webpage (no giant images please) with a table of prices by lot number
then it'd be easier to edit then editing the image everything you need to
make a change.

RE: layers

You could make each lot a hotspot and provide price and description in a pop
up.

Re: layers

If it were me I would use image hot spots with an informational pop-up on
mouse over (hover) to display the lot details, e.g., width / depth, price,
status (sold or not), and interesting features of the lot.

Re: layers

I agree, I was not keen on publishing flyers. I knew I would run into
problems.
Thanks for the advice.
