In VSD it's best to place each individual object in it's own HTML box then you can drag them around where ever you want. Alignment html is overridden in VSD because of the way VSD positions objects. Try putting each piece of code for the objects in it's own HTML box without any alignment code.:)
Also make sure that your HTML box is the same size as what's stated in the HTML code for the object.

I thought about your comment on alignment. The relocation issue seems to have gone away when I un-checked the center design button. Now the page stays left justified in the brouwser when I maximize the window.

I have been having the same problem with one site I have been working on, cakesbysherry.ca I have made 2 multi page sites before and have not had a problem, but seem to be now. I have a center design, but recently when I have tried to add new html boxes or pictures they do not show up in right position on site when I preview or publish. As with Craig, found when I uncheck the "Center design" box everything lines up right, but I still prefer the center design.
I added a second header picture to show the difference. Underneith, the text "click picture to enlarge" and the zoom picture are suppose to be beside each other too.

If your adding html box's and the content of your page is thrown off then more then likely the html code that you inserted in the html box is missing a starting or an end tag. Another thing to look at is duplicate tags which is one of your pages problems. One of your html boxes has a </head> tag at the beginning of the code.;)
That same html box has this in it also.

<body bgcolor="#CC99FF" text="#000000" link="#0000FF" alink="#FF0000" vlink="#FF00FF">

Delete that line of code.


All of this at the bottom of that html box is going to cause issues also.

</body></html></div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html></div>

THX Eric!! that did the trick! I should have asked sooner concidering how much time I spent trying to fix it myself and it being such an easy fix. The html originally was a page on it's own, made using Coffeecup's Pixconverter, making a Thumbnail page. I wanted the thumbnails to be embedded into main page so made a few changes.
