Hello everyone,

I'm a novice web designer who has only come to know basic HTML through Dreamweaver and Fireworks. I'm very interested in PHP and CSS design, but have VERY little ability to wrap my head around the language. Basially, I'm design oriented and have major trouble with code.

At any rate, I've designed a site that I'm proud of but find major difficulty in updating... not to mention it's made up of frames which we all know have their issues. I'm thinking of converting my web site into something more easily updated through Wordpress and love the framefake theme here: http://managedtasks.com/wpthemes/blog/index.php?wptheme=Framefake+Theme

This is how my website looks now:
http://www.oceanscape.net

My issue is trying to embed my Fireworks Javascripted HTML nav bars into the faked top and bottom frames. Does anyone have a simple explanation on how to handle this? I'm so lost!!!

Many thanks to anyone who has a clue. I've searched all over and can't figure this out!

from within firworks, i would save your navbar HTML to a new page, like temporary.html. in your new template from WordPress, put all your navbar HTML from temporary.html into the <div class='navcontainer'> or <div class='header'> elements. then make sure you copy the javascript from your temporary.html to your index.html page. (most like should go in the HEAD of the document).

i don't see a bottom navbar, so just copy the <img> tag for your footer image and put it in the <p class="credit"> tag.

i hope this helps...
