The secret of Dreamweaver 8 and layers?

[lvl0rg4n]

Dreamweaver n00b, here.
I've been attempting to create a page where my actual website is like 600w by 550h roughly and I have been doing it to where it's centered in the page. I do this by creating a table at 100% and centering the background.

The background is an image I've created and saved as a .gif. After I place the image into the table, I add a layer and put my text on it. It looks fine in Dreamweaver, but when I preview it in either IE or Firefox, the text is always about 100 pixels to the left of where it should be.

Any idea how I can fix this? Is there a better way to center the image on the page without using the table?

Thanks,
Moxie

You can use CSS to center the image.

#backing { background: url(path/to/image.gif) no-repeat center top; }

Okay, will this code center everything on my page? Or will it just center the image?

If it's just the image, how do I get all of my content to center as well?
