I have a converted layer that is now a table. It's so stubborn. I wish I could click and drag it onto a section of my page but it just SITS there. Even if I press the space bar to push it from left to right, it sticks there. The only way it moves is by pressing enter, and then that object only goes down. First off, is there any way to do that? And if not, how can I tell it where to go?

You are probably going to have to learn some CSS (http://www.htmldog.com/guides/cssbeginner/). Then you can use various CSS techniques to position elemements via margins, padding, relative positioning, and/or absolute positioning.

Well I can also use the Align Left, Center, and Right. WHy can I just press the space bar and make it move in the exact spot I want it? I looked at the CSS and it looks like that would take me a year to learn? Is there any way to enable drag and drop with dreamweaver?

Unfortunately, I know nothing about Dreamweaver: I learned the basics of HTML years ago before there were any tools like DW, and have always just marked up my pages via text editors.

Hmm. Every page I've created seemed to take some work for some reason. If you'd like to learn how to do it then check out the references in my sig. If you find some way to do it magically then let me know.

space bar doesnt a maxium of 1 space i think you are going to add " " for each additional space that you want. though this isnt the best way to do it. like above css would be better. just google css tutorials.
