I was wondering if there is an easy way to turn a Frames layout page into a CSS page layout with out much programing?? The page has a lot of graphics and I am not as familiar with CSS as I should be.

I'm just not sure how to add graphics to a CSS page so the graphics line up like the layout I now have. I was wondering if there is an easy way way to redo this page in CSS and by not using frames.

Here is the page....


Thanks,
Ed
 
2 things here, CSS has nothing to do with frames. Frames hold content, that content can be styled with CSS. There's nothing stopping you from doing that, in fact you're already using CSS in that page and inside the frames.

Second, adding graphics to s page is no different with or without CSS. CSS just helps you style a page, it doesn't replace regular HTML markup. You still use <img> tags and even backgrounds to place images.

With that said to move away from frames, you are going to need some programming since you'll want to be able to call the content that was in a frame now, into your standard page without a frame. However this would let you have a single base page that includes the required content based on parameters. Unlike now which as far as I can tell, you have several dozen pages all with the same content, simply set to call a different content for the frame in that page.
