Hi all. Not as professional as all of you. Just trying to do my own company website. Have problem. WE ver 7. I would like to control (set) the page lenght of each indivudual page. WE only allows a global page lenght. Can this be done? Thanks.

Yes, only way to remeady this, is to make a seperate Document for each page

What WebMonkey means to say is "no". Technically. Using a standard single document, all pages in the document will be the same length. So the initial answer is no, BUT, yes...
It becomes much harder to make different lengths because now you have to make new and seperate documents for each different length page you want.
It can be difficult. Your best bet is to come up with a length that is appropriate to be used across your entire docuement, its much easier.

I have to disagree with it being easier to do it this way. What if you create a page after the site is launched it is outisde of the 'normal' page length that you have adjusted for throughout your site? You'd have to create a new alb file right? Why not just create a template of your own with the basics of what is going ot be a constant on your site and then add the necessary content and adjust the length per that page? I find that much easier.
It's also easier to build the page when you do it this way, because what if you have a lot of pages and it takes a while a while to build them all, or you miss uploading all of the files to your server that you need. You then have to uplaod all of the files built.

Here is what I do. If you surf my site (http://www.posylane.com/index.html), you will see that the pages are all different sizes. Right before I upload, I edit the .css file to change the page length to just what I need.
I bit of a pain but you get used to it and as far as I know there is no other practical way.

There is a way to get you pages to size without making seperate pages, but I can't get the instructions attached, getting a server error. Once I can get it posted I will.
