are saying that the main table folds into the menu bar when they are on 640x480 rez.<br />
<br />
goto my site and put the favourites bar up it will be the same as having the 640x480<br />
if you know a way to change my tables to make them not do this please tell me<br />
thanks<!--content-->Are you coding the tables by hand? The code is very poorly written, the align attribute is miss-spelled so its being ignored (algin), you start new tables for no reason at all... ie:<br />
<br />
<TABLE CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="0" ALIGN="CENTER"><br />
<TABLE CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="0" ALIGN="CENTER"><br />

and the coding is all wrong....I'm surprised the page even displays! I'd hate to look at it in Netscape! It needs to be completely re-written...<br />

tell me how to rewrite it that was the whole point of this thread<!--content-->well you have to have order when you write html. you have to nest them instead of overlap them.<br />
<br />
<THIS><THAT></THIS> </THAT> Overlapping tags.... bad<br />
<THIS><THAT></THAT></THIS> Nested tags.... good<br />
<br />
what you did was put a table in a table that didn't have any rows or cells on the code Kevin showed you.<br />
<br />
you can make border colors in the first table tag instead of writing a new table tag to make one.<br />
<br />
then something like this.<br />
<TABLE WIDTH="100%" CELLPADDING="1" CELLSPACING="0" BGCOLOR="#1C4B92" border="0" bordercolor="#021532"><br />

</TABLE><!--content-->A lot of tables.....<br />
But no basic table, with a td on the left to place the menu-links in, and a td on the right with the content in it.<br />
That's why the content table is moving under the menu tables.<br />
Here the way i have changed it.<br />
On a 640 x 480 screen now there will be a scroll bar, with the content on the right.<!--content-->If you go to <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.w3c.org">www.w3c.org</a><!-- w --> and use the HTML validator on the code it will list the tag inconsistencies for you and point out anything else that is not standard.<!--content-->
