    I sliced a little window in PS where I wanted to add text in Dreamweaver. But in Dreamweaver the window turns white when I start writing in it. It does no longer match with the original background.. it just turn into a white window with my text :/ Eh?

    It`s because you need to put in that place the picture that u sliced, click on that white box, then choice insert in the menu and then choice the picture u want for the background.

    Visit the sites i posted for many tutorials ;)

    I am not so good at coding, but try to set the image to background.

    I don't remember how to do that, but i saw tut on pixel2life i'ev learned it from that site all the stuff.

    I hope someone will help you that know much about coding.

    yea, gac got it.

    you gotta set the image as a background, not an image. so go to table in the bottom left hand corner above the panel that has all the options, and you'll find background image and a blank space. locate the files location and put it there.

    your code for the table that the slice is for should look like this.

    Code:
    <td background="image/image_03.gif" width="123" height="922" rowspan="16">
    This is my content
    </td>
    
    and not

    Code:
    <td rowspan="16">
    [img]images/image_03.gif[/img]
    </td>

    It would prob be easier to see what your doing ( for me anyway ) if you posted the code, this way we can look at it and see what might be going wrong.

    Granted, I don't know much about dreadweaver itself, but I do know a bit about coding.
