Well, I'll try.
Many here would say to be careful with layers, especially if you are new
However, a layer is a positioned <div>
e.g the HTML reads
<div style="position:absolute">
..........
</div>
or
<div style="position:relative">
..........
</div>
In FP2003, I would amend the HTML code directly
Click on Code tab
Click on Edit on the menu bar
Click on Find
Type in "<div" (without the quotes).
Press "Find Next".
Keep repeating until you find the <div> in question.
It will read
<div style="position:relative">
or at least "position:relative" will be somewhere between "<div" and ">"
Overtype "relative" with "absolute"
Press Ctrl-S to save the change
Press Design tab to return to viewing the page
