ok i just got used to dreamweaver and i downloaded a trial but i wanna know if there is anyway i can just use a rectangle tool to drag and make a box as a div layer, like instead of typing the code in and the absolute positioning???

did that make sense lol.

and does anyone know how can i get frontpage or dreamweaver for free???? like i know that CB doesnt support piracy but i am about to go to it cause i dont know how to get it any other way.

Um, okay....
----
Let's say you have this for your coding ::
Save it as a HTML document in Notepad or whatever, then find it in your files.
Right-click on it and select Edit, it should be second and after Open.
Click for bad-quality screenshot.
A window should open with your document in it, click on approximately where you div layer should be, really far away from where it should be in this case. It should now have a thin, black border with little squares around it... Kinda like in MS Paint when you select.
Click for bad-quality screenshot.
The big square should allow you to drag the box to where you want it to be and the other little boxes allow you to re-size the div layer... This works well for overflow objects, but not so much for overflow:none; objects... You have to edit the final code for those. Is that kinda clear?
