Redesign company website

::complaining::

So I'm in the office at work now.. which is better than the factory floor.

But, they've given me the task of redesigning the company website.
After 1 week of working on the overall look, and not having any pages up, they got impatient.. I'm now told to just put the new banner/menu over the old content.

The old website was done in MS Frontpage, it's about 90%-95% microsoft bloat.
Full of XML and other MS generated crap to control formatting.. needless to say, it only views correctly in IE.

My boss created it in frontpage, and used absolute positioning on EVERYTHING, so things are lined up in relation to the browser window.

So, when you put the content into the new template, it's completely screwy, on any browser.

This old website is worse than complete crap, it's a nightmare. Yet I'm expected to rework this crap in a short time.

Someone said there's fast, cheap, and good.. you can have two of the three..
so true.. if you had all three, that'd be revolutionary.

'Good' just flew out the window.

Here's a screenshot to give you a feel of what I'm supposed to edit.

it might as well have been laid out in a publishing program and saved as a pdf
