If I want to place some content on the right side of the page and some on the left, is there an easy way to do this? Should I just make a table with alot of cellspacing?<!--content--><div style="float: left;">left</div><br />

Well that works as long as the text doesn't need to wrap. I figured out how to make a table and just did it that way.<br />

When you get more experience you'll realize they don't define the exact same thing.<br />

Thanks pyro<br />

BTW, I wasn't speaking so much about doing the same things in regard to something like splitting a page. More like a million different allowable syntaxes for defining a damn font size. And even then I'm sure I'm still wrong.<!--content-->
