I made a gaming site that looks really awesome but my text keeps moving side to side as i zoom into my webpage. That is really annoying! I tried using Dreamweaver and I made all my text static, but then it messes everything up and I cannot even place the text where it should be. Does anyone have a solution for this basic problem?

Static? Why would you want a specific block of text to always appear in a specific location no matter where you scroll on the page?

This doesn't sound like that though. It sounds like you are having an issue with relevant positioning and Em units or percentages for the content. This happens when you zoom into a page and the units and content areas expand, allowing the inner content to shift.

I honestly wouldn't be too concerned with it because no one sees this for the most part. Why would you want your content to appear the same no matter the viewing area? You'd have to have your content always getting smaller or larger proportionally to achieve that effect and then you'd be fucking over user usability.

I do highly suggest you learn XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS and not rely on an editor to make your code for you, because what you're suffering from is a lack of knowledge of how a usable website should work. Look into "Stylin' With CSS" (there's an ebook pdf floating around for free or buy it off Amazon for cheap) to get a really easy-to-read book discussing all of this.
 
remove the css: left: 532px; from apDiv1 and apDiv2
 
Blogger, lol. Honestly the entire structure and layout of the site is a cluster fuck. The whole layout is in a table, and then inside of the table you have divs.. which is stupid by itself, but then the divs have absolutely no attributes i.e. positioning or widths...

Drop blogger, get a fucking domain, use HTML and CSS to form and style your elements, and don't use tables unless you have actually have table like data. The code of this website looks like something a 12 year old would put together in like 1998.

i test my sites on blogger then i get a domain for it if it does well and usually a full owned domain gets de-indexed. I do have useless codes in there for sure i am just trying to finish it quick.

Well, my advice then is to keep the design, re work all of the code from scratch. This time take the tables out and use DIVs for the structure of the site. Make the dimensions of each div element static and use positioning or floats for the layout of the page.
