In the right circumstances,overflow: hidden; on the image  
container will do what you want,
how you create those circumstances in DreamWeaver is beyond both me and  
the focus of this list. A DW forum might provide better information.

Hi Duncan,
Thanks for the info.

Here is a clearer description of what I'm trying to do.
I'm wanting a header image to expand it's width as the browser window  
expands from 800 pixels to 1024 or from a 4 X 3 monitor to a 16 x 9  
monitor.
So in a smaller browser window, the right side of the image would  
become cropped, but become visible as the browser window expands.
Is there a way of doing this by placing the image in the container  
background field and using css to achieve this.

Also have this work in both EI and Firefox/Safari browsers with out  
to many hacks.

Thanks

Chris

#header {
min-width: 640px;
width:80%;
background: url("path/to/img.png") no-repeat;
}

and having your image 1024px wide. If you leave out no-repeat then 
you'll get nasty repeating of the image across the width of the page if 
someone has a viewport wider than 1280px.. Using this you shouldn't need 
to 'hack' much for IE 6 to behave unless the user's viewport is smaller 
than 800px (because ie6 doesn't understand min-width).

Don't know how helpful I'm being :)

Cheers,
Rob
