Best way to get HTML

Whats the best way to get a photoshop psd to a table style HTML File with a custom table layout?
Is this possible with GoLive or ImageReady?
I am tired of exporting the files and having to remake an entire html page because photoshop puts everything into one table and nothing can expand...

Anyway, give me some tips/tricks or tutorials please!
Thanks

The best way is to code the page by hand, with the images from photoshop. Or at the very least just slice up the images from photoshop, then build the page in something like Dreameaver. Imageready and the Photoshop export make horrible HTML that is very difficult to work with.

How can anybody disagree with deker ;)... I don't. Just wanted to add this, as the best way to do it is in fact by hand also try and stay away from tables... There are times when one can, with delight, use tables for different data presentations, but using them for the site layout is not for me...anymore. Try and make the image in PS, slice it up and handcode the layout using div's and classes rather than tables...

Patric.

My knowledge on divs are limited due to the fact that I was orginally taught the basic tags by my father and learned with them...
I know tables inside out and have never had trouble with them... I do not understand why so many people dislike them and keep referring me to use divs as I have never had any trouble using tables...

There are dozens of reasons to use CSS instead of Tables. But I've typed them all out way too many times on this forum trying to convince people, and it makes me tired, so if you want to research and learn for yourself: http://www.blingo.com/search?q=why%20use%20css&x=0&y=0

If not, feel free to stay in the 1990's and use tables.

Like Deker, I got sick and tired of trying to convert Photoshop files to web pagtes, and the whole slicing and table thing is for the birds. Anyway, I wrote a plug-in called SiteGrinder. I converts Photoshop designs to working websites. There's no slicing involved, the output is valid XHTML 1.1 and CSS.

SiteGrinder just came out with version 2.0 and now it supports a ton of advanced things like importing external HTML, late binding to external HTML via PHP require(), email contact forms (make 'em right in Photoshop), background tiling, documents that expand vertically, and more. And, of course, there is the standard list of things SiteGrinder does: direct conversion of styled Photoshop text to styled HTML, buttons (graphic or text), drop down menus, hyperlinks galore, full graphic re-use, and more.

Timmy... luckily you don't advertise as your homepage isn't a design you yourself have made. This template is made for wordpress by a friend of mine called Andreas Viklund, the templates is found here: http://www.oswd.org/design/preview/id/2204

My sole purpose of posting this is that I can't find (if I'm wrong I'm sorry) any credit on the site to Andreas... I'm of the conviction that one should credit others for their work if one uses it... Why dont you ?

You've been busted!!
