I've inserted a Flash navigation bar to the left of the larger photos on my galleries. It's positioned just fine for a panoramic but when I load another image, a vertical or full frame horz. the nav bar moves up or down according to the size of the photograph. I would like to have it anchored at a set distance from the thumbnail images in the upper bar so it's not bouncing up and down.

Here is a test page showing what I mean. (Sorry for the abv. link. Guess I'm to new to post URL's) Very odd.

This is probably DW8 101... or less but...help!

its resizing because you have it in table cell. i'd first of all not use tables at all and focus on using CSS and divs. are you just laying this out manually in DW8 or do you know the code? i'd lay this out with a div that spans the top o fthe page for the thumbnails and then 2 divs below that. one for the nav and one for the big images. then the nav wont move cause i'll be in a set position. let me know if you want some more help with this. i could give you a generic layout in html and css.

Hello Doug,

Thanks for the info and the offer to help, which I need plenty of. I've been winging it, learning by doing and primarily using DW 8 layout, going into the code on occasion.

Your help would be appreciated. Here is an updated test page. None of the other pages have the gallery nav bar yet.
