Web Page Editing -- Buttons -Reply

[Karen Harker]

The buttons are graphics, and need to be developed in a graphics
software application.  We use PaintShopPro, which as a utility to
create buttons (buttonize).  The text on the button becomes a part of
the graphic, and therefore is not text, but graphic.

When you have developed your button, you can place it using HTML, then
you need to map the image.  I do not know how or if you can do this
with Pro97, but in AOLPress, there is a utility to do this.

You may want to create a large graphic and divide this graphic into
smaller buttons, which may make it easier to place it on the page.

I'm working on new pages for our library, and I would like to include
some large buttons.  These need be large enough to hold their title. 
I think
I want to put them along the left edge in a frame.  

How can I get the buttons, or make the buttons.

How can I get the text inside the buttons.

I am using Pro97 as an editor.  I like the non-qui interface and the
clean
HTML.  I've tried (and have) Word's editor, Hot Dog, etc., but I
continually
have trouble getting the parts where I want them.  So I like Pro97,
even
with its shortcomings.
