I have regularly used the ideas of James Shook in his article 'Flexible Page
Layout Using Tables' http://www.dwfaq.com/Tutorials/Table...ble_tables.asp
to create web pages that expand and contract to cope with the differing size
windows and display resolutions. The elements appear to squash-up and expand
to fill the available space, and it works well. However I am designing pages
which require overlapping elements, so using tables gets very awkward. Can I
achieve some of the same flexibility when using layers as I do with Mr Shook's
tables?

No. But what do you mean by "require overlapping elements"?

Murray asked 'As for the overlapping images, can you just make a single graphic?'

Yes, I can. Just hoped there was a shortcut. Thanks for your help.
