2.  On the Details tab change the weblet  name to iii_toolbar.

3.  In the Design view use the context menu to Insert HTML / Table with 1 row and 4 columns.

4.  Save your changes.

5.  Select each cell in the toolbar table and use the Details tab to set it's align property to center.

6.  Switch to the Favorites tab, find your iii_toolbar_menuitem weblet. Drag and drop a iii_toolbar_menuitem into each of the four cells in the toolbar. Your toolbar should now look like the following in the Weblet Template design view.

7.  Use the cursor keys to position into each cell (<td> tag) and delete the * place holder characters.

      Save your changes.
