How do you stop layes from shifting on a web page?

I designed my site using pixels and in the 1024*768 view. I expected to have
people scroll across the screen to see all of the site.
However, I looked at a small screen on another computer yesterday and the
small 120*95 pixel layers in the left hand colum had shifted way off the main
table.
What can I do to stop this layer shift?
Thanks

Show me your page, please. When properly used layers are reliable in their
positioning. However, those unfamiliar with HTML will often interpret
centering content, and fixed layers, as layers moving.

First rule of website authoring:

* Do not use Microsoft Word to create a webpage.

You don't make it easy on yourself when you do that, because you get stuff
(to put it mildly) like this -

<span
style="font-size:8.0pt;line-height:159%;font-family:Arial;mso-default-font-family:
Arial;mso-ascii-font-family:Arial;mso-latin-font-family:Arial;mso-greek-font-family:
Arial;mso-cyrillic-font-family:Arial;mso-hebrew-font-family:Arial;
mso-arabic-font-family:Arial;mso-latinext-font-family:Arial;color:#000099;
font-weight:bold;language:EN;mso-ansi-language:EN">

Pay particular attention to the one about layers directly in table cells.
You have quite a few instances of that on your page. These layers, combined
with centering tables, is what's doing you in on this page.

I have about 85 or so links on that page and I tought I'd save some time.
