We created this site as a template for Caner (pronounced “John-naire”) Baykal, a foreign exchange student from Istanbul, Turkey. When he returns to Turkey, he and his friends will create content and use the site to keep in touch with friends and relatives.

On each page we typed generic text to indicate where the real content should be placed:

Caner, this is the area where you should place your text.

To ensure that the graphic elements of this design align all the way to the left and top edges of the browser window, we added the following code to the HTML Body Tag:

leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"

You can manually enter this code into the HTML code, or your HTML editing software may provide a way of placing the code automatically. In Dreamweaver (below), under the Modify menu, the Page Properties dialog box enables you to set the top margin, left margin, margin width and height.
