Resizing Tables in FrontPage 2000
Hello,
I'm trying to resize my company's order page so that
all of the contents can be viewed without the user having to scroll over to the right. A lot of customers can't figure out how to order, and I think
this is why. We're getting quite a few orders, so I'd like to fix this asap. The URL for this order page is http://www.laundry-alternative.com/order.html
The page is broken into 3 tables or cells, I want to make the middle one (which has a description of each product) more narrow to make everything fit on one page. I tried resizing this table by clicking and dragging the border of this table, like it says you can do in FrontPage help, but this isn't working. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the help, but this doesn't work either. If you have any other ideas, please let me know.
You might also check to see if you have "no wrap" checked in cell properties. This would also cause you to have problems in resizing the table.

Excellent response. It was really helpful that you sent me the actual html to cut and paste, that made things much simpler. Several other people replied, but you were the only person who could fix this problem.
I find it better (in using Frontpage) to adjust the widths of cells (in percent) in the HTML view. Make sure that they add up to 100% when you are done. I sometimes have the same problem of trying to adjust cell widths by dragging. The above method will get you around this problem.
