Is there a way to prevent layers from moving when the screen resolution is different?

Put it in a table inside of another layer and set the bigger layer to 100%. Thats the bootleg way of doing it. LOL

More of this mysterious Dreamweaver "layers" nonsense. I just did "Insert -> Layout Objects -> Layer" which spits out an absolutely positioned <div> with z-index. Stupid Macromedia making up shit and confusing people.

HTML Code:

<style type="text/css">
<!--
#Layer1 {
	position:absolute;
	width:200px;
	height:115px;
	z-index:1;
}
-->
</style>
</head>

<body>
<div id="Layer1">asdfasgdasfdgsdfh</div>
</body>

Here's a suggestion: Actually learn what you're doing with HTML/CSS and stop letting software write it for you.

Just do the page in css and you wont have any positioning problems.
