Another Table Problem

Guest
I apologize if this problem is a bit, well... stupid. But I'm having a heck of a time figuring this out. I want to achieve this layout:<br />
<br />
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.angelfire.com/games3/fezz/images/tablelayout.JPG">http://www.angelfire.com/games3/fezz/im ... layout.JPG</a><!-- m --><br />
<br />
But for some reason I can't find out a way to place the navigation cells to the left of the content, it keeps going on a new line. Observe:<br />

Thank you very much for your time.<!--content-->because you have 3 tables when you want only one table.<br />
<br />
or put all 3 into there own cell of the main table.<!--content-->I know that's how I have it now, I wasn't expecting that layout to work.<!--content-->huh? you have 3 seperate tables and if you want it to look like that image then you have to use 1 table.<!--content-->Oh okay, someone told me I should have 3 different tables instead of just one. Anyway, I switched it to one big table but can't get the navigations cells to sit to the left of the content.<!--content-->you can't just take out the table tags and hope it works.<br />
<br />
this is what the layout shoud be<br />
<br />
<table><br />
<tr><br />
<td> top part here</td><br />
</tr><br />
<td> navigation here</td><br />
<td> right frame here</td><br />
</tr><br />
</table><br />
<br />
that is it, you have all <tr> in your code which won't work.<br />
<br />
you may have to put the navigation into another table inside that cell so it will align to the top when the right frame expands.<!--content-->Thanks a lot, I think these forums are my new home. One more question, any idea how to get rid of that black line underneath the banner?<!--content-->try setting the border properties of the table<!--content-->A couple of changes to the table that scoutt provided:<br />
<br />
<table><br />
<tr><br />
<td colspan="2"> top part here</td><br />
</tr><br />
<tr><br />
<td> navigation here</td><br />
<td> right frame here</td><br />
</tr><br />
</table><br />
<br />
Typos fixed.<br />
<br />
In a hurry Scoutt?<!--content-->Yeah I figured out the stuff he left out. I really need to get rid of that line underneath the banner though...<!--content-->Originally posted by giz <br />

<img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"http://www.angelfire.com/games3/fezz/images/fezzhead.jpg"><br />
</td><br />
<br />

<br />
<td colspan=2><img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"http://www.angelfire.com/games3/fezz/images/fezzhead.jpg"></td><br />
