Layers in dreamweaver

uhh this section looks a bit dead but ill ask my question anyway.
Im currently learning Dreamweaver MX (not 2004 edition) while building a website.
What I have been trying to acheive is illustrated in the attached pics.
Pic one shows an image with text on it. The text is placed on top of the image using a layer. In dreamweaver the result looks perfect.
My problem is that when i preview my work in Internet explorer the text changes (pic 2 illustrates).
Ive tried fiddling around with it for awhile but have had no luck so far.
What can i do?

If you ask me the second image looks better anyway.

If you have frontpage, I would seriously consider using it over DW.

I'll have a play around in MX2004 and see if I can help.
 
My copy of dreamweaver was given to me by a relative who works in the design industry. They recently upgraded to MX 2004 edition I think.
Sorry about the confusion between the two pics.They are the wrong way around.
The second one is what it looks like in dreamweaver and the first is what happens when i preview it in internet explorer.
Ive found that when i type in normal cell in a table i can get what i want.
When I type in a layer everything goes wierd.
basically i need to be able to type text over the image without making the text part of the picture. :good:
 
Yes, I thought that was a little odd.

Do you have a copy of frontpage accessible?

If you would like, you can send it to me, what ever pages you need doing, and I will align them for you in frontpage, and send em back.
